Lord Byron Shall Quotations

Why I came here, I know not; where I shall go it is useless to inquire -- in the midst of myriads of the living and the dead worlds, stars, systems, infinity, why should I be anxious about an atom?

Such hath it been - shall be - beneath the sun the many still must labor for the one

Oh! snatched away in beauty's bloom, / On thee shall press no ponderous tomb.

Still must I hear? - shall hoarse Fitzgerald bawl / His creaking couplets in a tavern hall, / And I not sing?

He who ascends to mountain tops, shall find, The loftiest peaks most wrapt in clouds and snow; He who surpasses or subdues mankind, Must look down on the hate of those below

I like his holiness very much, particularly since an order, which I understand he has lately given, that no more miracles shall be performed.

While stands the Coliseum, Rome shall stand; / When falls the Coliseum, Rome shall fall; / And when Rome falls - the World.
