Alexander Pope

Topics: learning, creativity

• How index-learning turns no student pale, Yet holds the eel of science by the tail.

  — Alexander Pope

• A little learning is a dangerous thing; Drink deep, or taste not the Pierian spring; Their shallow draughts intoxicate the brain, And drinking largely sobers us again.

  — Alexander Pope

• One science only will one genius fit, So vast is art, so narrow human wit.

  — Alexander Pope
