More from Lord Byron
"I have a great admiration for Napoleon, and I believe he was the greatest man that ever lived."
"There is no doubt that I am a very selfish person."
"I hate mankind, for I think myself a man."
"God would have made his Will known without books, considering how very few could read when Jesus of Nazareth lived, had it been His pleasure to ratify any peculiar mode of worship."
"That low vice, curiosity."
About Lord Byron (1788-1824)
English Romantic poet whose Childe Harold's Pilgrimage (1812-18) and Don Juan (1819-24) made him a continent-wide celebrity; died at Missolonghi fighting for Greek independence. Closely associated with Percy Bysshe Shelley (Geneva summer companion and fellow second-generation Romantic) and John Keats (younger Romantic Byron mocked but later admired). For an intellectual contrast, see William Wordsworth, Lake Poet of pious nature-worship — Byron's mockery of 'the Lakers' Wordsworth, Coleridge, and Southey runs through Don Juan as a sustained literary feud across hundreds of stanzas. The cleanest Romantic-internal split between sincere-pastoral and cynical-worldly poetics.
