But words are things, and a small drop of ink, Falling like dew, upon a thought, produces That which makes thousands, perhaps millions, think.

More quotes by Lord Byron
Lord of himself that heritage of woe!
Lord Byron
A quiet conscience makes one so serene.
Lord Byron
What is the worst of woes that wait on age? What stamps the wrinkle deeper on the brow? To view each loved one blotted from life's page, And be alone on earth, as I am now.
Lord Byron
I am never long, even in the society of her I love, without yearning for the company of my lamp and my library.
Lord Byron
Dead scandals form good subjects for dissection.
Lord Byron
In general I do not draw well with literary men -- not that I dislike them but I never know what to say to them after I have praised their last publication.
Lord Byron
I know that two and two make four - and should be glad to prove it too if I could - though I must say if by any sort of process I could convert 2 and 2 into five it would give me much greater pleasure.
Lord Byron
My altars are the mountains and the ocean.
Lord Byron
No words suffice the secret soul to show, For truth denies all eloquence to woe.
Lord Byron
A good coach encourages the same type of resilience in the people they work with. They encourage them to take risks. If the risk results in failure, they help all people to learn from the mistake and then go on to try another way.
Lord Byron
Then stirs the feeling infinite, so felt In solitude, where we are least alone.
Lord Byron
No ear can hear nor tongue can tell the tortures of the inward hell!
Lord Byron
Know ye the land where the cypress and myrtle Are emblems of deeds that are done in their clime? Where the rage of the vulture, the love of the turtle, Now melt into sorrow, now madden to crime!
Lord Byron
Romances I ne'er read like those I have seen.
Lord Byron
We are all the fools of time and terror: Days Steal on us and steal from us yet we live, Loathing our life, and dreading still to die.
Lord Byron
Such is your cold coquette, who can't say No, And won't say Yes, and keeps you on and off-ing On a lee-shore, till it begins to blow, Then sees your heart wreck'd, with an inward scoffing.
Lord Byron
But every fool describes, in these bright days, His wondrous journey to some foreign court, And spawns his quarto, and demands your praise,-- Death to his publisher, to him 'tis sport.
Lord Byron
I am about to be married, and am of course in all the misery of a man in pursuit of happiness.
Lord Byron
Fools are my theme, let satire be my song.
Lord Byron
Hatred is the madness of the heart.
Lord Byron
