More from Lord Byron
"A woman's reputation is like a mirror, which a single breath can tarnish."
"I have a great love for nature, and I find solace in its beauty."
"Like other parties of the kind, it was first silent, then talky, then argumentative, then disputatious, then unintelligible, then altogethery, then inarticulate, and then drunk."
"I have a great admiration for Napoleon, and I believe he was the greatest man that ever lived."
"I have always been a friend of the oppressed, and an enemy of the oppressor."
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.
