More quotes by Lord Byron
[Armenian] is a rich language, however, and would amply repay any one the trouble of learning it.
Lord Byron
Be hypocritical, be cautious, be not what you seem but always what you see.
Lord Byron
I have a great mind to believe in Christianity for the mere pleasure of fancying I may be damned.
Lord Byron
Fame is the thirst of youth.
Lord Byron
There is music in all things, if men had ears.
Lord Byron
My heart in passion, and my head on rhymes.
Lord Byron
A small drop of ink makes thousands, perhaps millions... think.
Lord Byron
Despair and Genius are too oft connected
Lord Byron
Eternal Spirit of the chainless Mind! Brightest in dungeons, Liberty! thou art, For there thy habitation is the heart-- The heart which love of thee alone can bind And when thy sons to fetters are consign'd-- To fetters and damp vault's dayless gloom, Their country conquers with their martyrdom.
Lord Byron
History - the devil's scripture
Lord Byron
What men call gallantry, and gods adultery, is much more common where the climate's sultry.
Lord Byron
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
But words are things, and a small drop of ink, Falling like dew, upon a thought, produces That which makes thousands, perhaps millions, think.
Lord Byron
Think'st thou there is no tyranny but that Of blood and chains? The despotism of vice-- The weakness and the wickedness of luxury-- The negligence--the apathy--the evils Of sensual sloth--produces ten thousand tyrants, Whose delegated cruelty surpasses The worst acts of one energetic master, However harsh and hard in his own bearing.
Lord Byron
We have fools in all sects, and impostors in most why should I believe mysteries no one can understand, because written by men who chose to mistake madness for inspiration and style themselves Evangelicals?
Lord Byron
A quiet conscience makes one so serene.
Lord Byron
The 'good old times' - all times when old are good.
Lord Byron
Jealousy dislikes the world to know it.
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
Man marks the earth with ruin - his control stops with the shore.
Lord Byron
