Yet he was jealous, though he did not show it, For jealousy dislikes the world to know it.

More quotes by Lord Byron
Send me no more reviews of any kind. I will read no more of evil or good in that line. Walter Scott has not read a review of himself for thirteen years .
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
The Niobe of nations! there she stands.
Lord Byron
Pleasure's a sin, and sometimes sin's a pleasure.
Lord Byron
What is Death, so it be but glorious? 'Tis a sunset And mortals may be happy to resemble The Gods but in decay.
Lord Byron
Yet smelt roast meat, beheld a huge fire shine, And cooks in motion with their clean arms bared.
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
If I don't write to empty my mind, I go mad. As to that regular, uninterrupted love of writing. I do not understand it. I feel it as a torture, which I must get rid of, but never as a pleasure. On the contrary, I think composition a great pain.
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
This is the patent age of new inventions for killing bodies, and for saving souls. All propagated with the best intentions.
Lord Byron
Like to the apples on the Dead Sea's shore, All ashes to the taste.
Lord Byron
Books, Manuals, Directives, Regulations. The geometries that circumscribe your working life draw norrower and norrower until nothing fits inside them anymore.
Lord Byron
Then stirs the feeling infinite, so felt In solitude, where we are least alone.
Lord Byron
One hates an author that's all author.
Lord Byron
Jealousy dislikes the world to know it.
Lord Byron
The great object of life is Sensation - to feel that we exist - even though in pain - it is this craving void which drives us to gaming - to battle - to travel - to intemperate but keenly felt pursuits of every description whose principal attraction is the agitation inseparable from their accomplishment.
Lord Byron
Fame is the thirst of youth.
Lord Byron
The truly brave are soft of heart and eyes, and feel for what their duty bids them do.
Lord Byron
Man's conscience is the oracle of God.
Lord Byron
There's naught, no doubt, so much the spirit calms as rum and true religion.
Lord Byron
