More quotes by 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
You should have a softer pillow than my heart.
Lord Byron
I cannot help thinking that the menace of Hell makes as many devils as the severe penal codes of inhuman humanity make villains.
Lord Byron
Your thief looks Exactly like the rest, or rather better 'Tis only at the bar, and in the dungeon, That wise men know your felon by his features.
Lord Byron
Nor all that heralds rake from coffin'd clay, Nor florid prose, nor honied lies of rhyme, Can blazon evil deeds, or consecrate a crime.
Lord Byron
'Tis pleasant, sure, to see one's name in print. A book's a book, although there's nothing in 't.
Lord Byron
And gentle winds and waters near, make music to the lonely ear.
Lord Byron
This is to be mortal, And seek the things beyond mortality.
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
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
The place is very well and quiet and the children only scream in a low voice.
Lord Byron
My turn of mind is so given to taking things in the absurd point of view, that it breaks out in spite of me every now and then.
Lord Byron
Switzerland is a curst, selfish, swinish country of brutes, placed in the most romantic region of the world.
Lord Byron
I cannot conceive why people will always mix up my own character and opinions with those of the imaginary beings which, as a poet, I have the right and liberty to draw.
Lord Byron
Tis pleasant purchasing our fellow-creatures And all are to be sold, if you consider Their passions, and are dext'rous some by features Are brought up, others by a warlike leader Some by a place--as tend their years or natures The most by ready cash--but all have prices, From crowns to kicks, according to their vices.
Lord Byron
I only know we loved in vain I only feel-farewell! farewell!
Lord Byron
The Coach does not play in the game, but the Coach helps the players identify areas to improve their game.
Lord Byron
Heaven gives its favourites-early death.
Lord Byron
But stories somehow lengthen when begun.
Lord Byron
The great object of life is Sensation - to feel that we exist - even though in pain - it is this craving void which drives us to gaming - to battle - to travel - to intemperate but keenly felt pursuits of every description whose principal attraction is the agitation inseparable from their accomplishment.
Lord Byron
