It is true from early habit, one must make love mechanically as one swims I was once very fond of both, but now as I never swim unless I tumble into the water, I don't make love till almost obliged.
Lord Byron

More quotes by Lord Byron
Ye stars! which are the poetry of heaven!
Lord Byron
Tyranny Is far the worst of treasons. Dost thou deem None rebels except subjects? The prince who Neglects or violates his trust is more A brigand than the robber-chief.
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
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
What's drinking? A mere pause from thinking!
Lord Byron
In general I do not draw well with literary men -- not that I dislike them but I never know what to say to them after I have praised their last publication.
Lord Byron
Had sigh'd to many, though he loved but one.
Lord Byron
Father of Light! great God of Heaven! Hear'st thou the accents of despair? Can guilt like man's be e'er forgiven? Can vice atone for crimes by prayer.
Lord Byron
And Doubt and Discord step 'twixt thine and thee.
Lord Byron
The mind can make substance, and people planets of its own with beings brighter than have been, and give a breath to forms which can outlive all flesh.
Lord Byron
Man is in part divine, A troubled stream from a pure source.
Lord Byron
Fill high the cup with Samian wine!
Lord Byron
All who joy would win must share it. Happiness was born a Twin.
Lord Byron
Now I shall go to sleep. Goodnight.
Lord Byron
The heart will break, but broken live on.
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
A pretty woman is a welcome guest.
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
Keep thy smooth words and juggling homilies for those who know thee not.
Lord Byron
The great art of life is sensation, to feel that we exist, even in pain.
Lord Byron
