More From Alexander Pope

And now you ask in your heart, ‘how shall we distinguish that which is good in pleasure from that which is not good?’ go to your fields and your gardens, and you shall learn that it is the pleasure of the bee to gather honey of the flower, but it is also the pleasure of the flower to yield its honey to the bee. for to the bee a flower is a fountain of life, and to the flower a bee is a messenger of love, and to both, bee and flower, the giving and the receiving of pleasure is a need and an ecstasy. * people of orphalese, be in your pleasures like the flowers and the bees.

Dancing and building are the two primary and essential arts. the art of dancing stands at the source of all the arts that expressthemselves first in the human person. the art of building, or architecture, is the beginning of all the arts that lie outside the person; and in the end they unite. music, acting, poetry proceed in the one mighty stream; sculpture, painting, all the arts of design, in the other. there is no primary art outside these two arts, for their origin is far earlier than man himself; and dancing came first.

Well, another senator rose and said {as they always do} 'does the gentleman yield?' they always say that - least they call each other 'gentleman' in there. but the tone they put on the word, it would sound more appropriate if they came right out and said 'would the coyote from maine yield?' 'cause that's about the way it sounds. well, then, the other senator says 'i yield' (for if he don't the other guy'll keep on talking anyhow). so the coyote from maine says 'i yield to...the polecat from oregon!'
