No ear can hear nor tongue can tell the tortures of the inward hell!
Lord Byron
Image
He learned the arts of riding, fencing, gunnery, And how to scale a fortress - or a nunnery.

Oh! too convincing--dangerously dear-- In woman's eye the unanswerable tear! That weapon of her weakness she can wield, To save, subdue--at once her spear and shield.
Lord Byron
Image
The great art of life is sensation, to feel that we exist, even in pain.
Lord Byron
Image
I would rather have a nod from an American, than a snuff- box from an emperor.
Lord Byron
Image
Parting day Dies like the dolphin, whom each pang imbues With a new colour as it gasps away, The last still loveliest, till-'t is gone, and all is gray.
Lord Byron
Image
Letter writing is the only device combining solitude with good company.
Lord Byron
Image
Just as old age is creeping on space, And clouds come o'er the sunset of our day, They kindly leave us, though not quite alone, But in good company--the gout or stone.
Lord Byron
Image
By headless Charles see heartless Henry lies.
Lord Byron
Image
I am acquainted with no immaterial sensuality so delightful as good acting.
Lord Byron
Image
Think'st thou there is no tyranny but that Of blood and chains? The despotism of vice-- The weakness and the wickedness of luxury-- The negligence--the apathy--the evils Of sensual sloth--produces ten thousand tyrants, Whose delegated cruelty surpasses The worst acts of one energetic master, However harsh and hard in his own bearing.
Lord Byron
Image
Think'st thou existence doth depend on time? It doth but actions are our epochs.
Lord Byron
Image
There is, in fact, no law or government at all and it is wonderful how well things go on without them.
Lord Byron
Image
I die but first I have possessed, And come what may, I have been blessed.
Lord Byron
Image
If a man proves too clearly and convincingly to himself...that a tiger is an optical illusion--well, he will find out he is wrong. The tiger will himself intervene in the discussion, in a manner which will be in every sense conclusive.
Lord Byron
Image
And life 's enchanted cup but sparkles near the brim.
Lord Byron
