May Moorland weavers boast Pindaric skill, And tailors' lays be longer than their bill! While punctual beaux reward the grateful notes, And pay for poems--when they pay for coats.
Lord Byron

More quotes by Lord Byron
Keep thy smooth words and juggling homilies for those who know thee not.
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
I have not loved the World, nor the World me I have not flattered its rank breath, nor bowed To its idolatries a patient knee, Nor coined my cheek to smiles,-nor cried aloud In worship of an echo.
Lord Byron
Have not all past human beings parted, And must not all the present, one day part?
Lord Byron
Sometimes we are less unhappy in being deceived by those we love, than in being undeceived by them.
Lord Byron
Then stirs the feeling infinite, so felt In solitude, where we are least alone.
Lord Byron
O ye! who teach the ingenious youth of nations, Holland, France, England, Germany or Spain, I pray ye flog them upon all occasions, It mends their morals, never mind the pain.
Lord Byron
But as to women, who can penetrate the real sufferings of their she condition? Man's very sympathy with their estate has much of selfishness and more suspicion. Their love, their virtue, beauty, education, but form good housekeepers, to breed a nation.
Lord Byron
I doubt sometimes whether a quiet and unagitated life would have suited me - yet I sometimes long for it.
Lord Byron
For truth is always strange stranger than fiction.
Lord Byron
And I would hear yet once before I perish The voice which was my music... Speak to me!
Lord Byron
I live not in myself, but I become Portion of that around me: and to me High mountains are a feeling, but the hum of human cities torture.
Lord Byron
And life 's enchanted cup but sparkles near the brim.
Lord Byron
Man is in part divine, A troubled stream from a pure source.
Lord Byron
For through the South the custom still commands The gentleman to kiss the lady's hands.
Lord Byron
By Heaven! it is a splendid sight to see For one who hath no friend, no brother there.
Lord Byron
The heart will break, but broken live on.
Lord Byron
Prolonged endurance tames the bold.
Lord Byron
This is the patent age of new inventions for killing bodies, and for saving souls. All propagated with the best intentions.
Lord Byron
So for a good old-gentlemanly vice, I think I must take up with avarice.
Lord Byron
