Pope Innocent I

Famous quotes containing the words pope and/or innocent:

    How shall I lose the sin, yet keep the sense,
    And love th’offender, yet detest th’offence?
    —Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    When a felon’s not engaged in his employment
    Or maturing his felonious little plans,
    His capacity for innocent enjoyment
    Is just as great as any honest man’s.
