Additional quotes by Lord Byron

The humblest individual under heaven, Than might suffice a moderate century through. I knew that nought was lasting, but now even Change grows too changeable without being new.

Even innocence itself has many a wile,
And will not dare to trust itself with truth,
And love is taught hypocrisy from youth.

No words suffice the secret soul to show, For truth denies all eloquence to woe.
