For modes of faith let graceless zealots fight;
His can't be wrong whose life is in the right.

An Essay on Man (1734)

Hope springs eternal in the human breast:
Man never is, but always to be blest.

An Essay on Man (1734)

Hope humbly then; with trembling pinions soar;
Wait the great teacher, Death, and God adore;
What future bliss He gives not thee to know,
But gives that hope to be thy blessing now.
