The lapse of ages changes all things - time, language, the earth, the bounds of the sea, the stars of the sky, and every thing about, around, and underneath man, except man himself.

More quotes by Lord Byron
Nor all that heralds rake from coffin'd clay, Nor florid prose, nor honied lies of rhyme, Can blazon evil deeds, or consecrate a crime.
Lord Byron
Just as old age is creeping on space, And clouds come o'er the sunset of our day, They kindly leave us, though not quite alone, But in good company--the gout or stone.
Lord Byron
There are some feelings time cannot benumb, Nor torture shake.
Lord Byron
And the commencement of atonement is the sense of its necessity.
Lord Byron
Nothing so difficult as a beginning In poesy, unless perhaps the end.
Lord Byron
Hatred is the madness of the heart.
Lord Byron
But as to women, who can penetrate the real sufferings of their she condition? Man's very sympathy with their estate has much of selfishness and more suspicion. Their love, their virtue, beauty, education, but form good housekeepers, to breed a nation.
Lord Byron
If ancient tales say true, nor wrong these holy men.
Lord Byron
I slept and dreamt that life was beauty I woke and found that life was duty.
Lord Byron
You should have a softer pillow than my heart.
Lord Byron
Come what may, I have been blest.
Lord Byron
I only know we loved in vain I only feel-farewell! farewell!
Lord Byron
One certainly has a soul but how it came to allow itself to be enclosed in a body is more than I can imagine.
Lord Byron
Eternal Spirit of the chainless Mind! Brightest in dungeons, Liberty! thou art, For there thy habitation is the heart-- The heart which love of thee alone can bind And when thy sons to fetters are consign'd-- To fetters and damp vault's dayless gloom, Their country conquers with their martyrdom.
Lord Byron
A man of eighty has outlived probably three new schools of painting, two of architecture and poetry and a hundred in dress.
Lord Byron
O Fame! if I ever took delight in thy praises, Twas less for the sake of thy high-sounding phrases, Than to see the bright eyes of the dear one discover The thought that I was not unworthy to love her.
Lord Byron
Oh Rome! My country! City of the soul!
Lord Byron
It is when we think we lead that we are most led.
Lord Byron
Ye stars! which are the poetry of heaven!
Lord Byron
A good coach encourages the same type of resilience in the people they work with. They encourage them to take risks. If the risk results in failure, they help all people to learn from the mistake and then go on to try another way.
Lord Byron
