Blessed is the man who expects nothing, for he shall never be disappointed

Alexander Pope

A little Learning is a dang’rous Thing;

Drink deep, or taste not the Pierian Spring:

There shallow Draughts intoxicate the Brain,

And drinking largely sobers us again.

Alexander Pope

True ease in writing comes from art, not chance,

As those move easiest who have learn’d to dance.
