The paths of glory lead but to the grave.
I shall be but a shrimp of an author.
Where ignorance is bliss, 'Tis folly to be wise.
Too poor for a bribe, and too proud to importune, he had not the method of making a fortune.
Visions of glory, spare my aching sight.
Where ignorance is bliss, 'Tis folly to be wise. - Ode on a Distant Prospect of Eton College
