More quotes by Lord Byron
But what is Hope? Nothing but the paint on the face of Existence the least touch of truth rubs it off, and then we see what a hollow-cheeked harlot we have got hold of.
Lord Byron

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

Lord Byron
Thy decay's still impregnate with divinity.
Lord Byron
I die but first I have possessed, And come what may, I have been blessed.
Lord Byron
The world is a bundle of hay, Mankind are the asses that pull, Each tugs in a different way And the greatest of all is John Bull!
Lord Byron
Between two worlds life hovers like a star, twixt night and morn, upon the horizon's verge.
Lord Byron
There is, in fact, no law or government at all and it is wonderful how well things go on without them.
Lord Byron
I know that two and two make four - and should be glad to prove it too if I could - though I must say if by any sort of process I could convert 2 and 2 into five it would give me much greater pleasure.
Lord Byron
The reason that adulation is not displeasing is that, though untrue, it shows one to be of consequence enough, in one way or other, to induce people to lie.
Lord Byron
