Lord Byron Quotes

On with the dance! let joy be unconfin'd

Marriage from love, like vinegar from wine — A sad, sour, sober beverage — by time
Is sharpen’d from its high celestial flavour
Down to a very homely household savour.

We are all selfish and I no more trust myself than others with a good motive.

Here we are and there we go: — -but where?

Tis sweet to hear the watchdog’s honest bark
Bay deep- mouth’d welcome as we draw near home;
’Tis sweet to know there is an eye will mark
Our coming, and look brighter when we come;
’Tis sweet to be awaken’d by the lark,
Or lull’d by falling waters; sweet the hum
Of bees, the voice of girls, the song of birds,
The lisp of children, and their earliest words.

I know that two and two make four - and should be glad to prove it too if I could - though I must say if by any sort of process I could convert 2 and 2 into five it would give me much greater pleasure.

For freedom's battle, once begun,
Bequeath'd by bleeding sire to son,
Though baffled oft, is ever won.

Tribes of the wandering foot and weary breast,
How shall ye flee away and be at rest!
The wild-dove hath her nest, the fox his cave,
Mankind their country — Israel but the grave!

Oh who can tell, save he whose heart hath tried.

To have joy, one must share it.

And mine’s a bubble not blown up for praise, But just to play with, as an infant plays.

I may stand alone,
But would not change my free thoughts for a throne.

Though the night was made for loving,
And the day returns too soon,
Yet we'll go no more a roving
By the light of the moon.

Le donne sono angeli,il matrimonio il diavolo

What deep wounds ever closed without a scar?
