What some call health, if purchased by perpetual anxiety about die

What some call health, if purchased by perpetual anxiety about diet, isnt much better than tedious disease. – Alexander Pope

Other quotes by Alexander Pope

Damn with faint praise, assent with civil leer,
And without sneering teach the rest to sneer;
Willing to wound, and yet afraid to strike,
Just hint a fault, and hesitate dislike;
Alike reservd to blame, or to commend,
A timrous foe, and a suspicious friend. – Alexander Pope
