Alexander Pope Quotes About Judgment

Quotes about: Judgment

• First follow Nature, and your judgment frame
  By her just standard, which is still the same:
  Unerring nature, still divinely bright,
  One clear, unchanged, and universal light,
  Life, force, and beauty must to all impart,
  At once the source, and end, and test of art.
