I love not man the less, but Nature more.
If I don't write to empty my mind, I go mad.
Sorrow is knowledge, those that know the most must mourn the deepest, the tree of knowledge is not the tree of life.
Man!
Thou pendulum betwixt a smile and tear.
人‧你在微笑與眼淚間閃動！

Lord Byron, Childe Harold's Pilgrimage, Canto IV (1818), Stanza 109.
"一般人很少能親訪希臘親炙古典，何況偏居海隅西陲的英國佬。
Dull is the eye that will not weep to see希臘人自然不稱這批石雕為額爾金石雕，他們稱之為帕得嫩石雕。
Thy walls defaced, thy mouldering shrines removed
By British hands, which it had best behoved
To guard those relics ne'er to be restored.
Curst be the hour when from their isle they roved,
And once again thy hapless bosom gored,
And snatch'd thy shrinking gods to northern climes abhorred!
Lord Byron, "Childe Harold"
很有意思。Herbert Simon在自傳中用它說一流的學術界競爭激烈，

"When We Two Parted" by Lord Byron
When we two parted
In silence and tears,
Half broken-hearted
To sever for years,
Pale grew thy cheek and cold,
Colder thy kiss;
Truly that hour foretold
Sorrow to this.
In silence and tears,
Half broken-hearted
To sever for years,
Pale grew thy cheek and cold,
Colder thy kiss;
Truly that hour foretold
Sorrow to this.
The dew of the morning
Sunk chill on my brow--
It felt like the warning
Of what I feel now.
Thy vows are all broken,
And light is thy fame;
I hear thy name spoken,
And share in its shame.
Sunk chill on my brow--
It felt like the warning
Of what I feel now.
Thy vows are all broken,
And light is thy fame;
I hear thy name spoken,
And share in its shame.
They name thee before me,
A knell to mine ear;
A shrudder comes o'er me--
Why wert thou so dear?
They know not I knew thee,
Who knew thee so well--
Long, long I shall rue thee,
Too deeply to tell.
A knell to mine ear;
A shrudder comes o'er me--
Why wert thou so dear?
They know not I knew thee,
Who knew thee so well--
Long, long I shall rue thee,
Too deeply to tell.
In secret we met--
In silence I grieve,
That thy heart could forget,
Thy spirit deceive
If I should meet thee
After long years,
How should I greet thee?--
With silence and tears.
In silence I grieve,
That thy heart could forget,
Thy spirit deceive
If I should meet thee
After long years,
How should I greet thee?--
With silence and tears.

To the nineteenth-century reader, George Gordon, Lord Byron (1788-1824), was the archetype of the Romantic literary hero, a figure admired and emulated as much for the revolutionary panache with which he lived his life as the brio and allure of his verse. Our century has seen him more clearly as a poet whose intellectual toughness, satiric gifts, and utter inability to be boring have made him one of the great comic spirits in our literature.

The bride of science : romance, reason, and Byron’s daughter
He is known to the world for one book. In truth Darwin was a prolific author; like a 19th-century David Attenborough, he churned out bestselling volumes on earthworms, coral reefs, barnacles, insectivorous plants and, of course, human origins
‘I thank you for your paper on pigeons.’
Charles Darwin died #onthisday in 1882.
This letter, dated 1866, is from Darwin to Alfred Russel Wallace, who was also exploring the idea of evolution by natural selection. The parallel development of their theories belies the differences between the two men, which provide an interesting glimpse into the diverse backgrounds of those practising natural history at that time. Darwin did not need to seek paid employment to sustain his scientific activities, whereas Wallace earned his living as a professional specimen collector.

Canaletto died #onthisday in 1768. Known for his superbly detailed cityscapes, he recorded Venice’s teeming canals and bustling squares. This view was drawn in the 1760s and shows the Venetian Doge departing for the sea on his elaborate barge (called the Bucintoro). It was used in a ceremony called ‘the Marriage of the Sea’ where the Doge dropped a gold ring into the water, as a symbol of Venice’s dependence on the sea for its trade and wealth. http://ow.ly/oO8e30aZ368
