Love levels all,—it elevates the clown,
More quotes by Henry James Byron
This gardener's rule applies to youth and age,
When young sow wild oats, but when old grow sage.
The least drop in the world I do not mind:
"Cognac"'s a noun I never yet declin'd.
Smart soldiers like to be well tightened in:
Loose habits would destroy all discipline.

Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,
And therefore is wing'd Cupid painted blind.
To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.
Not for the body, but for the heart; companion and company are needed.
Love seldom haunts the breast where learning lies,
And Venus sets ere Mercury can rise.
