Why has not man a microscopic eye?
For this plain reason, man is not a fly."

With too much quickness ever to be taught;
With too much thinking to have common thought.

"`With every pleasing, every prudent part,
Say, what can Chloe want?' - She wants a heart."

"Words are like leaves; and where they most abound,
Much fruit of sense beneath is rarely found."

"You beat your Pate, and fancy Wit will come:
Knock as you please, there's no body at home."
