Yet smelt roast meat, beheld a huge fire shine, And cooks in motion with their clean arms bared.

More quotes by Lord Byron
I was accused of every monstrous vice by public rumour and private rancour my name, which had been a knightly or noble one, was tainted. I felt that, if what was whispered, and muttered, and murmured, was true, I was unfit for England if false, England was unfit for me.
Lord Byron
It is singular how soon we lose the impression of what ceases to be constantly before us. A year impairs, a luster obliterates. There is little distinct left without an effort of memory, then indeed the lights are rekindled for a moment - but who can be sure that the Imagination is not the torch-bearer?
Lord Byron
Why I came here, I know not where I shall go it is useless to inquire - in the midst of myriads of the living and the dead worlds, stars, systems, infinity, why should I be anxious about an atom?
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
I depart, Whither I know not but the hour's gone by When Albion's lessening shores could grieve or glad mine eye.
Lord Byron
Have not all past human beings parted, And must not all the present, one day part?
Lord Byron
Kill a man's family, and he may brook it, But keep your hands out of his breeches' pocket.
Lord Byron
Ah, happy years! once more who would not be a boy?
Lord Byron
Twas twilight, and the sunless day went down Over the waste of waters like a veil, Which, if withdrawn, would but disclose the frown Of one whose hate is mask'd but to assail.
Lord Byron
Tyranny Is far the worst of treasons. Dost thou deem None rebels except subjects? The prince who Neglects or violates his trust is more A brigand than the robber-chief.
Lord Byron
The heart will break, but broken live on.
Lord Byron
The simple Wordsworth . . . / Who, both by precept and example, shows / That prose is verse, and verse is merely prose.
Lord Byron
But there are wanderers o'er Eternity Whose bark drives on and on, and anchor'd ne'er shall be.
Lord Byron
If from society we learn to live, solitude should teach us how to die.
Lord Byron
This is to be mortal, And seek the things beyond mortality.
Lord Byron
Hatred is the madness of the heart.
Lord Byron
Where are the forms the sculptor's soul hath seized? In him alone, Can nature show as fair?
Lord Byron
I am acquainted with no immaterial sensuality so delightful as good acting.
Lord Byron
I stood among them, but not of them: in a shroud of thoughts which were not their thoughts.
Lord Byron
Oh who can tell, save he whose heart hath tried.
Lord Byron
