More quotes by Lord Byron
I am about to be married, and am of course in all the misery of a man in pursuit of happiness.
Lord Byron
Truth is a gem that is found at a great depth whilst on the surface of the world all things are weighed by the false scale of custom.
Lord Byron
Every day confirms my opinion on the superiority of a vicious life, and if Virtue is not its own reward, I don't know any other stipend annexed to it.
Lord Byron
I speak not of men's creeds—they rest between Man and his Maker.
Lord Byron
Sometimes we are less unhappy in being deceived by those we love, than in being undeceived by them.
Lord Byron
The fact is that my wife if she had common sense would have more power over me than any other whatsoever, for my heart always alights upon the nearest perch.
Lord Byron
Still from the fount of joy's delicious springs Some bitter o'er the flowers its bubbling venom flings.
Lord Byron
And hold up to the sun my little taper.
Lord Byron
I hate all pain, Given or received we have enough within us The meanest vassal as the loftiest monarch, Not to add to each other's natural burden Of mortal misery.
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
For truth is always strange stranger than fiction.
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
Roll on, deep and dark blue ocean, roll. Ten thousand fleets sweep over thee in vain. Man marks the earth with ruin, but his control stops with the shore.
Lord Byron
To chase the glowing hours with flying feet.
Lord Byron
Heaven gives its favourites-early death.
Lord Byron
With thee all tales are sweet each clime has charms earth - sea alike - our world within our arms.
Lord Byron
A drop of ink may make a million think.
Lord Byron
Kill a man's family, and he may brook it, But keep your hands out of his breeches' pocket.
Lord Byron
If from society we learn to live, solitude should teach us how to die.
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
