Sir, I admit your general rule, That every poet is a fool; But you usually may serve to show it That every fool is not a poet. - Pope

I have finally, after 35 years, completed my nine volume set of the collected writings of #AlexanderPope today
They were published in 1753, so I felt justified in playing a long game

Alexander Pope became one of the most quotable poets in English history. From biting satire to timeless lines like “To err is human,” Pope proved that wit and wisdom don’t need permission—or perfect health—to endure.

“Blest, who can unconcernedly find
Hours, days, and years slide soft away
In health of body, peace of mind;
Quiet by day.
Sound sleep by night; study and ease
Together mixed, sweet recreation,
And innocence, which most does please
With meditation.”

How happy is the blameless vestal’s lot!
The world forgetting, by the world forgot.
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind!
Each pray’r accepted, and each wish resign’d

I think it’s time we considered that Alexander Pope was most likely autistic, and his special interest was organizing and disseminating writing styles. Pattern recognition and then obsessing over the order of it all. #Booksky #Literaturesky #AlexanderPope
