Famous quotes containing the words pope and/or innocent:

    “True wit is Nature to advantage dressed,
    What oft was thought, but ne’er so well expressed;
    Something whose truth convinced at sight we find,
    That gives us back the image of our mind.”
    —Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    “And then a tall fat man with stringy hair
    And a manner that was innocent of sin,
    His galluses greasy, his eyes coldly gray,
    Appeared, and with a gravely learned air
    Spoke from the deep coherence of hell....”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)
