More quotes by Lord Byron
You gave me the key to your heart, my love, then why did you make me knock?
Lord Byron
Scion of chiefs and monarchs, where art thou? Fond hope of many nations, art thou dead? Could not the grave forget thee, and lay low Some less majestic, less beloved head?
Lord Byron
Tis said that persons living on annuities Are longer lived than others.
Lord Byron
Who then will explain the explanation?
Lord Byron
Prolonged endurance tames the bold.
Lord Byron
A timid mind is apt to mistake every scratch for a mortal wound.
Lord Byron
Perhaps the early grave Which men weep over may be meant to save.
Lord Byron
And those who saw, it did surprise, Such drops could fall from human eyes.
Lord Byron
And then he danced,-all foreigners excel the serious Angels in the eloquence of pantomime-he danced, I say, right well, with emphasis, and a'so with good sense-a thing in footing indispensable: he danced without theatrical pretence, not like a ballet-master in the van of his drill'd nymphs, but like a gentleman.
Lord Byron
I was accused of every monstrous vice by public rumour and private rancour my name, which had been a knightly or noble one, was tainted. I felt that, if what was whispered, and muttered, and murmured, was true, I was unfit for England if false, England was unfit for me.
Lord Byron
And Doubt and Discord step 'twixt thine and thee.
Lord Byron
None are so desolate but something dear, Dearer than self, possesses or possess'd A thought, and claims the homage of a tear.
Lord Byron
We of the craft are all crazy.
Lord Byron
And wrinkles, the damned democrats, won't flatter.
Lord Byron
I cannot help thinking that the menace of Hell makes as many devils as the severe penal codes of inhuman humanity make villains.
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
Eternity forbids thee to forget.
Lord Byron
Few things surpass old wine and they may preach Who please, the more because they preach in vain
Lord Byron
The English winter - ending in July to recommence in August
Lord Byron
The stars are forth, the moon above the tops Of the snow-shining mountains--beautiful! I linger yet with nature, for the night Hath been to me a more familiar face Than that of man, and in her starry shade Of dim and solitary loveliness I learned the language of another world.
Lord Byron
