Pale death knocks with impartial foot at poor men's hovels and king's palaces.
Acquittal of the guilty damns the judge.
The accumulation of wealth is followed by an increase of care, and by an appetite for more.
No poems can please long or live that are written by water drinkers.
He has half the deed done who has made a beginning.
Where there are many beauties in a poem I shall not cavil at a few faults proceeding either from negligence or from the imperfection of our nature.
