Charles Churchill

That evil is half-cured whose cause we know.

The surest road to health, say what they will, is never to suppose that we shall be ill. Most of those evils we poor mortals know from doctors and imagination flow.

No sky is heavy if the heart be light.

Censure is often useful, praise often deceitful.

If you mean to profit, learn to please.

Patience is sorrow's salve.
