More quotes by Lord Byron
He who is only just is cruel who Upon the earth would live were all judged justly?
Lord Byron
The keenest pangs the wretched find Are rapture to the dreary void, The leafless desert of the mind, The waste of feelings unemployed.
Lord Byron
Oh! too convincing--dangerously dear-- In woman's eye the unanswerable tear! That weapon of her weakness she can wield, To save, subdue--at once her spear and shield.
Lord Byron
I die but first I have possessed, And come what may, I have been blessed.
Lord Byron
'Tis sweet to know there is an eye will mark our coming, and look brighter when we come.
Lord Byron
Grieving, if aught inanimate e'er grieves, Over the unreturning brave.
Lord Byron
Few things surpass old wine and they may preach Who please, the more because they preach in vain
Lord Byron
Poetry should only occupy the idle.
Lord Byron
Truth is a gem that is found at a great depth whilst on the surface of the world all things are weighed by the false scale of custom.
Lord Byron
My altars are the mountains and the ocean.
Lord Byron
For truth is always strange stranger than fiction.
Lord Byron
Fools are my theme, let satire be my song.
Lord Byron
I stood among them, but not of them: in a shroud of thoughts which were not their thoughts.
Lord Byron
Keep thy smooth words and juggling homilies for those who know thee not.
Lord Byron
Eternity forbids thee to forget.
Lord Byron
Between two worlds life hovers like a star, twixt night and morn, upon the horizon's verge.
Lord Byron
And life 's enchanted cup but sparkles near the brim.
Lord Byron
I have always laid it down as a maxim -and found it justified by experience -that a man and a woman make far better friendships than can exist between two of the same sex -but then with the condition that they never have made or are to make love to each other.
Lord Byron
Most glorious night! Thou wert not sent for slumber!
Lord Byron
And what is writ is writ - / Would it were worthier!
Lord Byron
