Pope Due

Famous quotes containing the words pope and/or due:

“And die of nothing but a rage to live.”
—Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

“Illustrious examples engross, prejudice, and intimidate. They engross our attention, and so prevent a due inspection of ourselves; they prejudice our judgment in favour of their abilities, and so lessen the sense of our own; and they intimidate us with the splendour of their renown, and thus under diffidence bury our strength.”
—Edward Young (1683–1765)
