Image
Grieving, if aught inanimate e'er grieves, Over the unreturning brave.
Lord Byron
Image
Between two worlds life hovers like a star, twixt night and morn, upon the horizon's verge.
Lord Byron
Image
This is to be mortal, And seek the things beyond mortality.
Lord Byron
Image
But as to women, who can penetrate the real sufferings of their she condition? Man's very sympathy with their estate has much of selfishness and more suspicion. Their love, their virtue, beauty, education, but form good housekeepers, to breed a nation.
Lord Byron
Image
When age chills the blood, when our pleasures are past - For years fleet away with the wings of the dove - The dearest remembrance will still be the last, Our sweetest memorial the first kiss of love.
Lord Byron
Image
All Heaven and Earth are still, though not in sleep, But breathless, as we grow when feeling most.
Lord Byron
Image
Venice once was dear, The pleasant place of all festivity, The revel of the earth, the masque of Italy.
Lord Byron
Image
In itself a thought, a slumbering thought is capable of years and curdles a long life into one hour.
Lord Byron
Image
Better to sink beneath the shock Than moulder piecemeal on the rock!
Lord Byron
Image
The very best of vineyards is the cellar
Lord Byron
Image
It is when we think we lead that we are most led.
Lord Byron
Image
If a man proves too clearly and convincingly to himself...that a tiger is an optical illusion--well, he will find out he is wrong. The tiger will himself intervene in the discussion, in a manner which will be in every sense conclusive.
Lord Byron
Image
Next to dressing for a rout or ball, undressing is a woe.
Lord Byron
Image
I suppose we shall soon travel by air-vessels make air instead of sea voyages and at length find our way to the moon, in spite of the want of atmosphere.
Lord Byron
Image
I have not loved the World, nor the World me I have not flattered its rank breath, nor bowed To its idolatries a patient knee, Nor coined my cheek to smiles,-nor cried aloud In worship of an echo.
Lord Byron
Image
This quiet sail is as a noiseless wing To waft me from distraction.
Lord Byron
Image
The keenest pangs the wretched find Are rapture to the dreary void, The leafless desert of the mind, The waste of feelings unemployed.
Lord Byron
Image
No ear can hear nor tongue can tell the tortures of the inward hell!
Lord Byron
Image
With flowing tail and flying mane, Wide nostrils never stretched by pain, Mouth bloodless to bit or rein, And feet that iron never shod, And flanks unscar'd by spur or rod, A thousand horses - the wild - the free - Like waves that follow o'er the sea, Came thickly thundering on.

Romances I ne'er read like those I have seen.
