Quote

Farewell! if ever fondest prayer For other's weal avail'd on high, Mine will not all be lost in air, But waft thy name beyond the sky.

More quotes by Lord Byron

Image
Scion of chiefs and monarchs, where art thou? Fond hope of many nations, art thou dead? Could not the grave forget thee, and lay low Some less majestic, less beloved head?
Lord Byron
Image
Keep thy smooth words and juggling homilies for those who know thee not.
Lord Byron
Image
Man is a carnivorous production, And must have meals, at least one meal a day He cannot live, like woodcocks, upon suction, But, like the shark and tiger, must have prey Although his anatomical construction Bears vegetables, in a grumbling way, Your laboring people think beyond all question, Beef, veal, and mutton better for digestion.
Lord Byron
Image
I am always most religious upon a sunshiny day.
Lord Byron
Image
The heart ran o'er With silent worship of the great of old!-- The dead, but sceptred sovereigns, who still rule Our spirits from their urns.
Lord Byron
Image
And Doubt and Discord step 'twixt thine and thee.
Lord Byron
Image
I stood among them, but not of them: in a shroud of thoughts which were not their thoughts.
Lord Byron
Image
Oh, talk not to me of a name great in story The days of our youth are the days of our glory And the myrtle and ivy of sweet two-and-twenty Are worth all your laurels, though ever so plenty.
Lord Byron
Image
This man is freed from servile bands, Of hope to rise, or fear to fall Lord of himself, though not of lands, And leaving nothing, yet hath all.
Lord Byron
Image
There are some feelings time cannot benumb, Nor torture shake.
Lord Byron
Image
Are not the mountains, waves, and skies as much a part of me, as I of them?
Lord Byron
Image
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
Image
One hates an author that's all author.
Lord Byron
Image
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
Image
I slept and dreamt that life was beauty I woke and found that life was duty.
Lord Byron
Image
O Fame! if I ever took delight in thy praises, Twas less for the sake of thy high-sounding phrases, Than to see the bright eyes of the dear one discover The thought that I was not unworthy to love her.
Lord Byron
Image
A thirst for gold, The beggar's vice, which can but overwhelm The meanest hearts.
Lord Byron
Image
And I would hear yet once before I perish The voice which was my music... Speak to me!
Lord Byron
Image
In commitment, we dash the hopes of a thousand potential selves.
Lord Byron
Image
They truly mourn, that mourn without a witness.
Lord Byron
