More quotes by Lord Byron
I would rather have a nod from an American, than a snuff- box from an emperor.
Lord Byron
The waves were dead the tides were in their grave, The moon, their mistress, had expir'd before The winds were wither'd in the stagnant air, And the clouds perish'd Darkness had no need Of aid from them-She was the Universe.
Lord Byron
Let not his mode of raising cash seem strange, Although he fleeced the flags of every nation, For into a prime minister but change His title, and 'tis nothing but taxation.
Lord Byron
I learned to love despair.
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 bright sun was extinguish'd, and the stars Did wander darkling in the eternal space.
Lord Byron
Hatred is the madness of the heart.
Lord Byron
A pretty woman is a welcome guest.
Lord Byron
And hold up to the sun my little taper.
Lord Byron
We have fools in all sects, and impostors in most why should I believe mysteries no one can understand, because written by men who chose to mistake madness for inspiration and style themselves Evangelicals?
Lord Byron
I should like to know who has been carried off, except poor dear me - I have been more ravished myself than anybody since the Trojan war.
Lord Byron
Man, being reasonable, must get drunk the best of life is but intoxication.
Lord Byron
The 'good old times' - all times when old are good.
Lord Byron
Next to dressing for a rout or ball, undressing is a woe.
Lord Byron
So for a good old-gentlemanly vice, I think I must take up with avarice.
Lord Byron
History - the devil's scripture
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
No ear can hear nor tongue can tell the tortures of the inward hell!
Lord Byron
He who grown aged in this world of woe, In deeds, not years, piercing the depths of life, So that no wonder waits him.
Lord Byron
But what is Hope? Nothing but the paint on the face of Existence the least touch of truth rubs it off, and then we see what a hollow-cheeked harlot we have got hold of.
Lord Byron
