Lucky men are favorites of Heaven.
He made all countries where he came his own.
Be secret and discreet; the fairy favors are lost when not concealed.
The commendation of adversaries is the greatest triumph of a writer, because it never comes unless extorted.
Pity only on fresh objects stays, but with the tedious sight of woes decays.
Imagining is in itself the very height and life of poetry, which, by a kind of enthusiasm or extraordinary emotion of the soul, makes it seem to us that we behold those things which the poet paints.
