Our life is two fold Sleep hath its own world, A boundary between the things misnamed Death and existence Sleep hath its own world, And a wide realm of wild reality.

There is, in fact, no law or government at all; and it is wonderful how well things go on without them.

Think'st thou existence doth depend on time? It doth; but actions are our epochs.

Fair Greece! sad relic of departed worth! Immortal, though no more! though fallen, great!

Religion-freedom-vengeance-what you will, A word's enough to raise mankind to kill.

Love rules the camp, the court, the grove - for love is Heaven, and Heaven is love.

George Gordon Byron 714 quotes

Father of Light! great God of Heaven! Hear'st thou the accents of despair? Can guilt like man's be e'er forgiven? Can vice atone for crimes by prayer.

George Gordon Byron 714 quotes

O thou beautiful And unimagina...

O thou beautiful And unimaginable ether! and Ye multiplying masses of increased And still increasing lights! what are ye? what Is this blue wilderness of interminable Air, where ye roll along, as I have seen The leaves along the limpid streams of Eden? Is your course measur'd for ye? Or do ye Sweep on in your unbounded revelry Through an aerial universe of endless Expansion,--at which my soul aches to think,-- Intoxicated with eternity.

George Gordon Byron 714 quotes

Not to admire, is all the art ...

Not to admire, is all the art I know To make men happy, or to keep them so. Thus Horace wrote we all know long ago; And thus Pope quotes the precept to re-teach From his translation; but had none admired, Would Pope have sung, or Horace been inspired?

George Gordon Byron 714 quotes

Just as old age is creeping on...

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.

George Gordon Byron 714 quotes

Like to the apples on the Dead...

Like to the apples on the Dead Sea's shore, All ashes to the taste.

When Bishop Berkeley said 'there was no matter.' And proved it--'t was no matter what he said.

George Gordon Byron 714 quotes

Ancient of days! august Athena! where, Where are thy men of might? thy grand in soul? Gone--glimmering through the dream of things that were; First in the race that led to glory's goal, They won, and pass'd away--Is this the whole?

George Gordon Byron 714 quotes

But every fool describes, in t...

But every fool describes, in these bright days, His wondrous journey to some foreign court, And spawns his quarto, and demands your praise,-- Death to his publisher, to him 'tis sport.

George Gordon Byron 714 quotes

The mellow autumn came, and with it came The promised party, to enjoy its sweets. The corn is cut, the manor full of game; The pointer ranges, and the sportsman beats In russet jacket;--lynx-like is his aim; Full grows his bag, and wonderful his feats. An, nutbrown partridges! An, brilliant pheasants! And ah, ye poachers!--'Tis no sport for peasants.

George Gordon Byron 714 quotes

Well, well, the world must tur...

Well, well, the world must turn upon its axis, And all mankind turn with it, heads or tails, And live and die, make love and pay our taxes, And as the veering winds shift, shift our sails.

George Gordon Byron 714 quotes

Tis not on youth's smooth chee...

Tis not on youth's smooth cheek the blush alone, which fades so fast, But the tender bloom of heart is gone, ere youth itself be past.

George Gordon Byron 714 quotes

Tis pleasant purchasing our fe...

Tis pleasant purchasing our fellow-creatures; And all are to be sold, if you consider Their passions, and are dext'rous; some by features Are brought up, others by a warlike leader; Some by a place--as tend their years or natures; The most by ready cash--but all have prices, From crowns to kicks, according to their vices.

George Gordon Byron 714 quotes

Better to sink beneath the sho...

Better to sink beneath the shock Than moulder piecemeal on the rock!

George Gordon Byron 714 quotes

Yet still there whispers the s...

Yet still there whispers the small voice within, Heard through Gain's silence, and o'er Glory's din; Whatever creed be taught or land be trod, Man's conscience is the oracle of God.
