More quotes by William Cowper
Knowledge is proud that he has learned so much;
Wisdom is humble that he knows no more.
Men deal with life as children with their play,
Who first misuse, then cast their toys away.

O, brother man! fold to thy heart thy brother;
where pity dwells, the peace of God is there.
The craving for sympathy is the common boundary-line between joy and sorrow.
