A woman being never at a loss... the devil always sticks by them.

Yet I did love thee to the last,
As ferverently as thou,
Who didst not change through all the past,
And canst not alter now.

Like the measles, love is most dangerous when it comes late in life.

There's naught, no doubt, so much the spirit calms as rum and true religion.
Lord ByronThose who will not reason, are bigots, those who cannot, are fools, and those who dare not, are slaves.

Gwynned lies two days westwards; still further south, the weregeld calls. Mayhap with All-Father Woden's favour, my deeds may yet inspire the skalds.

But what is Hope? Nothing but the paint on the face of Existence; the least touch of truth rubs it off, and then we see what a hollow-cheeked harlot we have got hold of.
Lord ByronTags: hope lord-byron
But first, on earth as vampire sent,
Thy corse shall from its tomb be rent,
Then ghastly haunt thy native place,
And suck the blood of all thy race.
There from thy daughter, sister, wife,
At midnight drain the stream of life,
Yet loathe the banquet which perforce
Must feed thy livid living corse.
Thy victims ere they yet expire
Shall know the demon for their sire,
As cursing thee, thou cursing them,
Thy flowers are withered on the stem.
There is something pagan in me that I cannot shake off. In short, I deny nothing, but doubt everything.
Lord ByronThey 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.
