Alexander Pope

To err is human; to forgive, divine. 

Fools rush in where angels fear to tread. 

No one should be ashamed to admit they are wrong, which is but saying, in other words, that they are wiser today than they were yesterday. 

Blessed is the man who expects nothing, for he shall never be disappointed was the ninth beatitude. 

Beauties in vain their pretty eyes may roll; charms strike the sight, but merit wins the soul. 
 

No woman ever hates a man for being in love with her, but many a woman hate a man for being a friend to her. 

Act well your part, there all the honour lies. 

Trust not yourself, but your defects to know, make use of every friend and every foe. 

Charms strike the sight, but merit wins the soul. 

The difference is too nice - Where ends the virtue or begins the vice. 

Genius creates, and taste preserves. Taste is the good sense of genius; without taste, genius is only sublime folly. 

And die of nothing but a rage to live. 

The most positive men are the most credulous. 

For Forms of Government let fools contest; whatever is best administered is best. 

Wit is the lowest form of humor. 

The proper study of Mankind is Man. 

Education forms the common mind. Just as the twig is bent, the tree's inclined. 

Fools admire, but men of sense approve.
