Since the moment i heard the lines delivered by the character of Dunst in Eternal Sunshine, as she quoted Pope's, i promptly took note of it. Aside from his "To err is human, to forgive divine.", the more that i knew he has recounted some more bywords and witticisms remote to my knowledge. Here are some of those:
One science only will one genius fit:
So vast is art, so narrow human wit.
(intellect)
Honour and shame from no condition rise;
Act well your part, there all the honour lies.
(integrity)
Love, free as air at sight of human ties,
Spreads his light wings, and in a moment flies.
(love)
Histories are more full of examples of the fidelity of dogs than of friends.
(loyalty)
