Alexander Pope is regarded as one of the greatest English poets, and the foremost poet of the early eighteenth century. After Shakespeare, Pope is the second-most quoted writer in the English language, as per The Oxford Dictionary of Quotations, some of his verses having even become popular idioms in common parlance (e.g., Damning with faint praise). He is considered a master of the heroic couplet. (1688-1744) |

All nature is but art unknown to thee,
All chance direction which thou canst not see;
All discord, harmony not understood.
