Famous quotes containing the words pope and/or innocent:

    “Who breaks a butterfly on a wheel?”
    —Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    “The conduct of a man, who studies philosophy in this careless manner, is more truly sceptical than that of any one, who feeling in himself an inclination to it, is yet so over-whelm’d with doubts and scruples, as totally to reject it. A true sceptic will be diffident of his philosophical doubts, as well as of his philosophical conviction; and will never refuse any innocent satisfaction, which offers itself, upon account of either of them.”
    —David Hume (1711–1776)
