More quotes by Lord Byron
Still from the fount of joy's delicious springs Some bitter o'er the flowers its bubbling venom flings.
Lord Byron
But words are things, and a small drop of ink, Falling like dew, upon a thought, produces That which makes thousands, perhaps millions, think.
Lord Byron
The reason that adulation is not displeasing is that, though untrue, it shows one to be of consequence enough, in one way or other, to induce people to lie.
Lord Byron
Let no man grumble when his friends fall off, As they will do like leaves at the first breeze When your affairs come round, one way or t'other, Go to the coffee house, and take another.
Lord Byron
A quiet conscience makes one so serene.
Lord Byron
Age shakes Athena's tower, but spares gray Marathon.
Lord Byron
I stood among them, but not of them: in a shroud of thoughts which were not their thoughts.
Lord Byron
And gentle winds and waters near, make music to the lonely ear.
Lord Byron
Though I love my country, I do not love my countrymen.
Lord Byron
I am the very slave of circumstance And impulse borne away with every breath! Misplaced upon the throne misplaced in life. I know not what I could have been, but feel I am not what I should be let it end.
Lord Byron
I slept and dreamt that life was beauty I woke and found that life was duty.
Lord Byron
The great art of life is sensation, to feel that we exist, even in pain.
Lord Byron
I am so convinced of the advantages of looking at mankind instead of reading about them, . . . that I think there should be a law amongst us to set our young men abroad for a term among the few allies our wars have left us.
Lord Byron
Curiosity kills itself and love is only curiosity, as is proved by its end.
Lord Byron
I have great hopes that we shall love each other all our lives as much as if we had never married at all.
Lord Byron
The bright sun was extinguish'd, and the stars Did wander darkling in the eternal space.
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
No words suffice the secret soul to show, For truth denies all eloquence to woe.
Lord Byron
Like the measles, love is most dangerous when it comes late in life.
Lord Byron
For the night Shows stars and women in a better light.
Lord Byron
