Edward Young - Love of Fame (satire I, l. 89)

Some for renown, on scraps of learning dote,
And think they grow immortal as they quote.
Edward Young
Procrastination is the thief of time.
Edward Young
Much learning shows how little mortals know; much wealth, how little worldings enjoy.
Edward Young
Be wise with speed . A fool at forty is a fool indeed.
Edward Young
Too low they build, who build beneath the stars.
Edward Young
Procrastination is the thief of time.
