Lord Byron Quotes About Memories

Quotes about: Memories

• They say that Hope is happiness But genuine Love must prize the past; And Mem'ry wakes the thoughts that bless: They rose first -- they set the last. And all that mem'ry loves the most Was once our only hope to be: And all that hope adored and lost Hath melted into memory. Alas! It is delusion all-- The future cheats us from afar: Nor can we be what we recall, Nor dare we think on what we are.

  Lord Byron

  Memories, Past, Thinking

  George Gordon Byron, “Stanzas For Music: They Say That Hope Is Happiness”

• Near this spot are deposited the remains of one who possessed beauty without vanity, strength without insolence, courage without ferocity, and all the virtues of man, without his vices. This praise, which would be unmeaning flattery if inscribed over human ashes, is but a just tribute to the memory of Botswain, a dog.

  Lord Byron

  Dog, Memories, Men

  George Gordon Byron, “Epitaph To A Dog”

• It is singular how soon we lose the impression of what ceases to be constantly before us. A year impairs, a luster obliterates. There is little distinct left without an effort of memory, then indeed the lights are rekindled for a moment - but who can be sure that the Imagination is not the torch-bearer?

  Lord Byron

  Memories, Light, Years
