Who is content with nothing possesses all things.
Greatest fools are the most often satisfied.
But satire, ever moral, ever new, Delights the reader and instructs him, too. She, if good sense refine her sterling page, Oft shakes some rooted folly of the age.
The wisest man is generally he who thinks himself the least so.
Whate'er is well conceived is clearly said, And the words to say it flow with ease.
In spite of every sage whom Greece can show, Unerring wisdom never dwelt below; Folly in all of every age we see, The only difference lies in the degree.
