More quotes by Lord Byron
Man is in part divine, A troubled stream from a pure source.
Lord Byron
Few things surpass old wine and they may preach Who please, the more because they preach in vain
Lord Byron
By headless Charles see heartless Henry lies.
Lord Byron
What is fame? The advantage of being known by people of whom you yourself know nothing, and for whom you care as little.
Lord Byron
The image of Eternity--the throne Of the Invisible even from out thy slime The monsters of the deep are made each zone Obeys thee thou goest forth, dread, fathomless, alone.
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
A small drop of ink makes thousands, perhaps millions... think.
Lord Byron
I have had, and may have still, a thousand friends, as they are called, in life, who are like one's partners in the waltz of this world -not much remembered when the ball is over.
Lord Byron
Now I shall go to sleep. Goodnight.
Lord Byron
Opinions are made to be changed or how is truth to be got at?
Lord Byron
Be hypocritical, be cautious, be not what you seem but always what you see.
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
A material resurrection seems strange and even absurd except for purposes of punishment, and all punishment which is to revenge rather than correct must be morally wrong, and when the World is at an end, what moral or warning purpose can eternal tortures answer?
Lord Byron
Years steal fire from the mind as vigor from the limb and life's enchanted cup but sparkles near the brim.
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
To withdraw myself from myself has ever been my sole, my entire, my sincere motive in scribbling at all.
Lord Byron
This is the patent age of new inventions for killing bodies, and for saving souls. All propagated with the best intentions.
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
The premises are so delightfully extensive, that two people might live together without ever seeing, hearing or meeting.
Lord Byron
The Coach does not play in the game, but the Coach helps the players identify areas to improve their game.
Lord Byron
