Quotes by Lord Byron

Lord Byron

Then stirs the feeling infinite, so felt In solitude, where we are least alone.

What is the worst of woes that wait on age? What stamps the wrinkle deeper on the brow? To view each loved one blotted from lifes page, And be alone on earth, as I am now.

“I awoke one morning to find myself famous.”

“The lapse of ages changes all things - time - language - the earth - the bounds of the sea - the stars of the sky, and everything about, around, and underneath man, except man himself, who has always been and always will be, an unlucky rascal. The infinite variety of lives conduct but to death, and the infinity of wishes lead but to disappointment. All the discoveries which have yet been made have multiplied little but existence.”

“When the green woods laugh with the voice of joy, And the dimpling stream runs laughing by; When the air does laugh with our merry wit, And the green hill laughs with the noise of it.”
