Lord Byron

For the sword outwears its sheath, and the soul wears out the breast. And the heart must pause to breathe, and love itself have rest.

I have great hopes that we shall love each other all our lives as much as if we had never married at all.

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

A woman who gives any advantage to a man may expect a lover -- but will sooner or later find a tyrant.

A mistress never is nor can be a friend. While you agree, you are lovers; and when it is over, anything but friends.

Friendship is Love without his wings!

The poor dog, in life the firmest friend. The first to welcome, foremost to defend.

Think not I am what I appear.

The reason that adulation is not displeasing is that, though untrue, it shows one to be of consequence enough, in one way or other, to induce people to lie.

A woman should never be seen eating or drinking, unless it be lobster salad and Champagne, the only true feminine and becoming viands.
