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

More quotes by Lord Byron
The reason that adulation is not displeasing is that, though untrue, it shows one to be of consequence enough, in one way or other, to induce people to lie.
Lord Byron
Man is born passionate of body, but with an innate though secret tendency to the love of Good in his main-spring of Mind. But God help us all! It is at present a sad jar of atoms.
Lord Byron
Grieving, if aught inanimate e'er grieves, Over the unreturning brave.
Lord Byron
And wrinkles, the damned democrats, won't flatter.
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
Friendship is Love without his wings!
Lord Byron
Folly loves the martyrdom of fame.
Lord Byron
Land of lost gods and godlike men.
Lord Byron
With thee all tales are sweet each clime has charms earth - sea alike - our world within our arms.
Lord Byron
Go let thy less than woman's hand Assume the distaff not the brand.
Lord Byron
Socrates said, our only knowledge was To know that nothing could be known a pleasant Science enough, which levels to an ass Each Man of Wisdom, future, past, or present. Newton, (that Proverb of the Mind,) alas! Declared, with all his grand discoveries recent, That he himself felt only like a youth Picking up shells by the great Ocean-Truth.
Lord Byron
But every fool describes, in these bright days, His wondrous journey to some foreign court, And spawns his quarto, and demands your praise,-- Death to his publisher, to him 'tis sport.
Lord Byron
And gentle winds and waters near, make music to the lonely ear.
Lord Byron
Though the day of my Destiny 's over, And the star of my Fate hath declined, Thy soft heart refused to discover The faults which so many could find.
Lord Byron
America is a model of force and freedom and moderation - with all the coarseness and rudeness of its people.
Lord Byron
Alas! how deeply painful is all payment!
Lord Byron
I speak not of men's creeds—they rest between Man and his Maker.
Lord Byron
If ancient tales say true, nor wrong these holy men.
Lord Byron
Tis an old lesson time approves it true, And those who know it best, deplore it most When all is won that all desire to woo, The paltry prize is hardly worth the cost.
Lord Byron
Then farewell, Horace whom I hated so, Not for thy faults, but mine.
Lord Byron
