More quotes by Lord Byron
Yet I did love thee to the last, As ferverently as thou, Who didst not change through all the past, And canst not alter now.
Lord Byron
Nor all that heralds rake from coffin'd clay, Nor florid prose, nor honied lies of rhyme, Can blazon evil deeds, or consecrate a crime.
Lord Byron
There is, in fact, no law or government at all and it is wonderful how well things go on without them.
Lord Byron
I have great hopes that we shall love each other all our lives as much as if we had never married at all.
Lord Byron
Happiness was born a twin.
Lord Byron
I am so convinced of the advantages of looking at mankind instead of reading about them, . . . that I think there should be a law amongst us to set our young men abroad for a term among the few allies our wars have left us.
Lord Byron
By headless Charles see heartless Henry lies.
Lord Byron
Are not the mountains, waves, and skies as much a part of me, as I of them?
Lord Byron
Many are poets, but without the nameFor what is Poesy but to createFrom overfeeling Good or Ill and aimAt an external life beyond our fate,And be the new Prometheus of new men,Bestowing fire from Heaven, and then, too late,Finding the pleasure given repaid with pain
Lord Byron
Be hypocritical, be cautious, be not what you seem but always what you see.
Lord Byron
Of religion I know nothing -- at least, in its favor.
Lord Byron
A timid mind is apt to mistake every scratch for a mortal wound.
Lord Byron
If from society we learn to live, solitude should teach us how to die.
Lord Byron
My altars are the mountains and the ocean.
Lord Byron
She walks in beauty, like the night Of cloudless climes and starry skies And all that's best of dark and bright Meet in her aspect and her eyes.
Lord Byron
History - the devil's scripture
Lord Byron
With flowing tail and flying mane, Wide nostrils never stretched by pain, Mouth bloodless to bit or rein, And feet that iron never shod, And flanks unscar'd by spur or rod, A thousand horses - the wild - the free - Like waves that follow o'er the sea, Came thickly thundering on.
Lord Byron
Better to sink beneath the shock Than moulder piecemeal on the rock!
Lord Byron
This is to be along this, this is solitude!
Lord Byron
Man is in part divine, A troubled stream from a pure source.
Lord Byron
