I hate all pain, Given or received we have enough within us The meanest vassal as the loftiest monarch, Not to add to each other's natural burden Of mortal misery.

More quotes by Lord Byron
Earth! render back from out thy breast A remnant of our Spartan dead! Of the three hundred grant but three, To make a new Thermopylæ!
Lord Byron
If I could always read, I should never feel the want of company.
Lord Byron
The art of angling, the cruelest, the coldest and the stupidest of pretended sports.
Lord Byron
I speak not of men's creeds—they rest between Man and his Maker.
Lord Byron
Know ye the land where the cypress and myrtle Are emblems of deeds that are done in their clime? Where the rage of the vulture, the love of the turtle, Now melt into sorrow, now madden to crime!
Lord Byron
Books, Manuals, Directives, Regulations. The geometries that circumscribe your working life draw norrower and norrower until nothing fits inside them anymore.
Lord Byron
I only know we loved in vain I only feel-farewell! farewell!
Lord Byron
Land of lost gods and godlike men.
Lord Byron
Still from the fount of joy's delicious springs Some bitter o'er the flowers its bubbling venom flings.
Lord Byron
O Fame! if I ever took delight in thy praises, Twas less for the sake of thy high-sounding phrases, Than to see the bright eyes of the dear one discover The thought that I was not unworthy to love her.
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
The mind can make substance, and people planets of its own with beings brighter than have been, and give a breath to forms which can outlive all flesh.
Lord Byron
The reading or non-reading a book will never keep down a single petticoat.
Lord Byron
I came to realize clearly that the mind is no other than the Mountain and the Rivers and the great wide Earth, the Sun and the Moon and the Sky”.
Lord Byron
The Christian has greatly the advantage of the unbeliever, having everything to gain and nothing to lose.
Lord Byron
And what is writ is writ - / Would it were worthier!
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Twas twilight, and the sunless day went down Over the waste of waters like a veil, Which, if withdrawn, would but disclose the frown Of one whose hate is mask'd but to assail.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
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
Are not the mountains, waves, and skies as much a part of me, as I of them?
Lord Byron
