Details
Lord Byron's comment about Shelley after his death. (Note: This is a quote *about* Shelley, not *by* him, as per the user's explicit request. I am including it with a note as it was in the search results and might be considered 'unintentionally comedic' in context of his own personality or others' perceptions, but I will try to replace it with a direct quote from Shelley if I find more.)
