More quotes by Lord Byron
A legal broom's a moral chimney-sweeper, And that's the reason he himself's so dirty
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
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
I do not believe in any religion, I will have nothing to do with immortality. We are miserable enough in this life without speculating upon another.
Lord Byron
Curiosity kills itself and love is only curiosity, as is proved by its end.
Lord Byron
Many are poets, but without the nameFor what is Poesy but to createFrom overfeeling Good or Ill and aimAt an external life beyond our fate,And be the new Prometheus of new men,Bestowing fire from Heaven, and then, too late,Finding the pleasure given repaid with pain
Lord Byron
This sort of adoration of the real is but a heightening of the beau ideal.
Lord Byron
Next to dressing for a rout or ball, undressing is a woe.
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
And the commencement of atonement is the sense of its necessity.
Lord Byron
Sweet is old wine in bottles, ale in barrels.
Lord Byron
If we must have a tyrant, let him at least be a gentleman who has been bred to the business, and let us fall by the axe and not by the butcher's cleaver.
Lord Byron
A little still she strove, and much repented, And whispering “I will ne'er consent”—consented.
Lord Byron
Smiles form the channels of a future tear.
Lord Byron
Twas twilight, and the sunless day went down Over the waste of waters like a veil, Which, if withdrawn, would but disclose the frown Of one whose hate is mask'd but to assail.
Lord Byron
Most glorious night! Thou wert not sent for slumber!
Lord Byron
Which cheers the sad, revives the old, inspires The young, makes Weariness forget his toil, And Fear her danger opens a new world When this, the present, palls.
Lord Byron
You gave me the key to your heart, my love, then why did you make me knock?
Lord Byron
A quiet conscience makes one so serene.
Lord Byron
I have not loved the World, nor the World me I have not flattered its rank breath, nor bowed To its idolatries a patient knee, Nor coined my cheek to smiles,-nor cried aloud In worship of an echo.
Lord Byron
