Praise undeserv'd is satire in disguise

Praise undeserved s satire in disguise.

If grass is greener on the other side, why wait at this side of the fence?

It is proved...that things cannot be other than they are, for since everything was made for a purpose, it follows that everything is made for the best purpose.

Satire lies about literary men while they live and eulogy lies about them when they die. [Fr., La satire ment sur les gens de lettres pendant leur vie, et l'eloge ment apres leur mort.]

Satire's my weapon, but I'm too discreet To run amuck and tilt at all I meet.
