Opinions are made to be changed or how is truth to be got at?
Lord Byron
Image
Let not his mode of raising cash seem strange, Although he fleeced the flags of every nation, For into a prime minister but change His title, and 'tis nothing but taxation.
Lord Byron
Image
A little still she strove, and much repented, And whispering “I will ne'er consent”—consented.
Lord Byron
Image
Sleep hath its own world, and the wide realm of wild reality.
Lord Byron
Image
Admire, exult, despise, laugh, weep for here There is such matter for all feelings: Man! Thou pendulum betwixt a smile and tear.
Lord Byron
Image
Ye stars! which are the poetry of heaven!
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
Hearts will break - yet brokenly, live on.
Lord Byron

The Christian has greatly the advantage of the unbeliever, having everything to gain and nothing to lose.
Lord Byron
Image
Earth! render back from out thy breast A remnant of our Spartan dead! Of the three hundred grant but three, To make a new Thermopylæ!
Lord Byron

You gave me the key to your heart, my love, then why did you make me knock?
Lord Byron
Image
I die but first I have possessed, And come what may, I have been blessed.
Lord Byron
Image
It has been said that the immortality of the soul is a grand peut-tre -but still it is a grand one. Everybody clings to it -the stupidest, and dullest, and wickedest of human bipeds is still persuaded that he is immortal.
Lord Byron
Image
I am acquainted with no immaterial sensuality so delightful as good acting.
Lord Byron
Image
Pleasure's a sin, and sometimes sin's a pleasure.
Lord Byron
Image
He who is only just is cruel who Upon the earth would live were all judged justly?
Lord Byron
Image
Frienship is eros...without wings
Lord Byron
Image
I am the very slave of circumstance And impulse borne away with every breath! Misplaced upon the throne misplaced in life. I know not what I could have been, but feel I am not what I should be let it end.
Lord Byron
Image
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
