More from Lord Byron
"Friendship is Love without his wings!"
"I have great hopes that we shall love each other all our lives as much as if we had never married at all."
"I am a citizen of the world, and I do not care for any particular country."
"I am a very proud man, and I have a great contempt for those who are not."
"The greatest minds are those who can be both serious and frivolous."
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.
