Additional quotes by Robert Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Earl of Lytton

Who seeks for aid
Must show how service sought can be repaid.

A night of tears! for the gusty rain
Had ceased, but the eaves were dripping yet;
And the moon look'd forth, as tho' in pain,
With her face al white and wet.

For only by knowledge of that which is not
Thyself shall thyself be learn'd.
