George Gordon Byron Quotes

Let us have wine and woman, mirth and laughter,Sermons and soda water the day after.Man, being reasonable, must get drunk;The best of life is but intoxication:Glory, the grape, love, gold, in these are sunkThe hopes of all men, and of every nation;Without their sap, how branchless were the trunkOf life's strange tree, so fruitful on occasion:But to return--Get very drunk; and whenYou wake with head-ache, you shall see what then.

Man's love is of man's life a thing apart,'Tis woman's whole existence.

Where there is mystery, it is generally supposed there must be evil.

I am ashes where once I was fire...

A woman who gives any advantage to a man may expect a lover -- but will sooner or later find a tyrant.

On with the dance! let joy be unconfin'd

Friendship is love without wings.

The bright sun was extinguish'd, and the starsDid wander darkling in the eternal space.
