More quotes by Lord Byron
Do proper homage to thine idol's eyes But no too humbly, or she will despise Thee and thy suit, though told in moving tropes: Disguise even tenderness if thou art wise.
Lord Byron
Death, so called, is a thing which makes men weep, And yet a third of life is passed in sleep.
Lord Byron
Oh Rome! My country! City of the soul!
Lord Byron
'Twas strange that one so young should thus concern His brain about the action of the sky If you think 'twas philosophy that this did, I can't help thinking puberty assisted.
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
It is not one man nor a million, but the spirit of liberty that must be preserved. The waves which dash upon the shore are, one by one, broken, but the ocean conquers nevertheless. It overwhelms the Armada, it wears out the rock. In like manner, whatever the struggle of individuals, the great cause will gather strength.
Lord Byron
The very best of vineyards is the cellar
Lord Byron
The Coach does not play in the game, but the Coach helps the players identify areas to improve their game.
Lord Byron
And Doubt and Discord step 'twixt thine and thee.
Lord Byron
Letter writing is the only device combining solitude with good company.
Lord Byron
The law of heaven and earth is life for life.
Lord Byron
Grief is fantastical, and loves the dead, And the apparel of the grave.
Lord Byron
My heart in passion, and my head on rhymes.
Lord Byron
I can't but say it is an awkward sight To see one's native land receding through The growing waters it unmans one quite, Especially when life is rather new.
Lord Byron
All Heaven and Earth are still, though not in sleep, But breathless, as we grow when feeling most.
Lord Byron
I stood among them, but not of them: in a shroud of thoughts which were not their thoughts.
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
Man is in part divine, A troubled stream from a pure source.
Lord Byron
Better to sink beneath the shock Than moulder piecemeal on the rock!
Lord Byron
I have had, and may have still, a thousand friends, as they are called, in life, who are like one's partners in the waltz of this world -not much remembered when the ball is over.
Lord Byron
