More quotes by Lord Byron
Let no man grumble when his friends fall off, As they will do like leaves at the first breeze When your affairs come round, one way or t'other, Go to the coffee house, and take another.
Lord Byron
'Tis sweet to know there is an eye will mark our coming, and look brighter when we come.
Lord Byron
No ear can hear nor tongue can tell the tortures of the inward hell!
Lord Byron
But there are wanderers o'er Eternity Whose bark drives on and on, and anchor'd ne'er shall be.
Lord Byron
It is the lava of the imagination whose eruption prevents an earthquake.
Lord Byron

Lord Byron
Sweet is old wine in bottles, ale in barrels.
Lord Byron

Lord Byron
In England the only homage which they pay to Virtue - is hypocrisy.

He learned the arts of riding, fencing, gunnery, And how to scale a fortress - or a nunnery.
Lord Byron
But mighty Nature bounds as from her birth The sun is in the heavens, and life on earth: Flowers in the valley, splendor in the beam, Health on the gale, and freshness in the stream.
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
The lapse of ages changes all things - time, language, the earth, the bounds of the sea, the stars of the sky, and every thing about, around, and underneath man, except man himself.
Lord Byron
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
By Heaven! it is a splendid sight to see For one who hath no friend, no brother there.
Lord Byron
Now I shall go to sleep. Goodnight.
Lord Byron
And hold up to the sun my little taper.
Lord Byron
I really cannot know whether I am or am not the Genius you are pleased to call me, but I am very willing to put up with the mistake, if it be one.
Lord Byron
Have not all past human beings parted, And must not all the present, one day part?
Lord Byron
Smiles form the channels of a future tear.
Lord Byron
