"Those who will not reason, are bigots, those who cannot, are fools, and those who dare not, are slaves."
"All tragedies are finished by a death, All comedies are ended by a marriage; The future states of both are left to faith."
"I am a very emotional man, and I feel everything deeply."
"I have always been of opinion that the best way to make a man a good soldier is to make him a good citizen."
"The Cardinal is at his wit's end - it is true that he had not far to go."
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.
Often attributed to Madame de Sévigné, but a sentiment Byron might have expressed.
