More quotes by 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Twas twilight, and the sunless day went down Over the waste of waters like a veil, Which, if withdrawn, would but disclose the frown Of one whose hate is mask'd but to assail.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
Then, fare thee well, deceitful Maid!
Lord Byron
The heart will break, but broken live on.
Lord Byron
The very best of vineyards is the cellar
Lord Byron
Age shakes Athena's tower, but spares gray Marathon.
Lord Byron
Letter writing is the only device combining solitude with good company.
Lord Byron
Have not all past human beings parted, And must not all the present, one day part?
Lord Byron
I speak not of men's creeds—they rest between Man and his Maker.
Lord Byron
For what were all these country patriots born? To hunt, and vote, and raise the price of corn?
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
I am acquainted with no immaterial sensuality so delightful as good acting.
Lord Byron
Man is a carnivorous production, And must have meals, at least one meal a day He cannot live, like woodcocks, upon suction, But, like the shark and tiger, must have prey Although his anatomical construction Bears vegetables, in a grumbling way, Your laboring people think beyond all question, Beef, veal, and mutton better for digestion.
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
We are all the fools of time and terror: Days Steal on us and steal from us yet we live, Loathing our life, and dreading still to die.
Lord Byron
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
The truly brave are soft of heart and eyes, and feel for what their duty bids them do.
Lord Byron
You gave me the key to your heart, my love, then why did you make me knock?
Lord Byron
Ada! sole daughter of my house and heart.
Lord Byron
Fools are my theme, let satire be my song.
Lord Byron
A pretty woman is a welcome guest.
Lord Byron
