My turn of mind is so given to taking things in the absurd point of view, that it breaks out in spite of me every now and then.

More quotes by Lord Byron
But stories somehow lengthen when begun.
Lord Byron
And dreams in their development have breath, And tears, and tortures, and the touch of joy They have a weight upon our waking thoughts, They take a weight from off our waking toils, They do divide our being.
Lord Byron
By headless Charles see heartless Henry lies.
Lord Byron
Ye stars! which are the poetry of heaven!
Lord Byron
It is singular how soon we lose the impression of what ceases to be constantly before us. A year impairs, a luster obliterates. There is little distinct left without an effort of memory, then indeed the lights are rekindled for a moment - but who can be sure that the Imagination is not the torch-bearer?
Lord Byron
Which cheers the sad, revives the old, inspires The young, makes Weariness forget his toil, And Fear her danger opens a new world When this, the present, palls.
Lord Byron
All human history attests That happiness for man, - the hungry sinner! - Since Eve ate apples, much depends on dinner. ~Lord Byron, Don Juan, Canto XIII, stanza 99
Lord Byron
O ye! who teach the ingenious youth of nations, Holland, France, England, Germany or Spain, I pray ye flog them upon all occasions, It mends their morals, never mind the pain.
Lord Byron
Absence - that common cure of love.
Lord Byron
And gentle winds and waters near, make music to the lonely ear.
Lord Byron
Eternity forbids thee to forget.
Lord Byron
Earth! render back from out thy breast A remnant of our Spartan dead! Of the three hundred grant but three, To make a new Thermopylæ!
Lord Byron
The Coach does not play in the game, but the Coach helps the players identify areas to improve their game.
Lord Byron
You gave me the key to your heart, my love, then why did you make me knock?
Lord Byron
For the Angel of Death spread his wings on the blast, And breathed in the face of the foe as he passed And the eyes of the sleepers waxed deadly and chill, And their hearts but once heaved, and for ever grew still!
Lord Byron
Since Eve ate the apple, much depends on dinner.
Lord Byron
In solitude, when we are least alone.
Lord Byron
By Heaven! it is a splendid sight to see For one who hath no friend, no brother there.
Lord Byron
Our life is two fold Sleep hath its own world, A boundary between the things misnamed Death and existence Sleep hath its own world, And a wide realm of wild reality.
Lord Byron
Happiness was born a twin.
Lord Byron
