"There are two ways of disliking poetry; one way is to dislike it, the other is to read Pope."

Oscar Wilde on Alexander Pope.
(Source: 1more-cosmo)
Only the shallow know themselves.
God knows; I won't be an Oxford don anyhow. I'll be a poet, a writer, a dramatist. Somehow or other I'll be famous, and if not famous, I'll be notorious. Or perhaps I'll lead the life of pleasure for a time and then—who knows?—rest and do nothing. What does Plato say is the highest end that man can attain here below? To sit down and contemplate the good. Perhaps that will be the end of me too.
