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
I can't but say it is an awkward sight To see one's native land receding through The growing waters it unmans one quite, Especially when life is rather new.
Lord Byron
Age shakes Athena's tower, but spares gray Marathon.
Lord Byron
Who then will explain the explanation?
Lord Byron
But mighty Nature bounds as from her birth The sun is in the heavens, and life on earth: Flowers in the valley, splendor in the beam, Health on the gale, and freshness in the stream.
Lord Byron
All who joy would win must share it. Happiness was born a Twin.
Lord Byron

Lord Byron

Lord Byron
'Twas strange that one so young should thus concern His brain about the action of the sky If you think 'twas philosophy that this did, I can't help thinking puberty assisted.
Lord Byron
Yet I did love thee to the last, As ferverently as thou, Who didst not change through all the past, And canst not alter now.
Lord Byron
Keep thy smooth words and juggling homilies for those who know thee not.
Lord Byron
Tis said that persons living on annuities Are longer lived than others.
Lord Byron
By headless Charles see heartless Henry lies.
Lord Byron
And those who saw, it did surprise, Such drops could fall from human eyes.
Lord Byron
Bologna is celebrated for producing popes, painters, and sausage.
Lord Byron
Few things surpass old wine and they may preach Who please, the more because they preach in vain
Lord Byron
