The average man does not get pleasure out of an idea because he thinks it is true; he thinks it is true because he gets pleasure out of it. (Lord Byron )
Women have simple tastes. They get pleasure out of the conversation of children in arms and men in love. (Lord Byron )
I conceive that pleasures are to be avoided if greater pains be the consequence, and pains to be coveted that will terminate in greater pleasures. (Lord Byron )
The truth is, I do indulge myself a little the more in pleasure, knowing that this is the proper age of my life to do it; and, out of my observation that most men that do thrive in the world do forget to take pleasure during the time that they are getting their estate, but reserve that till they have got one, and then it is too late for them to enjoy it. (Lord Byron )
We tire of those pleasures we take, but never of those we give. (Lord Byron )
Pleasure is the greatest incentive to evil. (Lord Byron )
People have many different kinds of pleasure. The real one is that for which they will forsake the others. (Lord Byron )
Short lived pleasure is the parent of pain. (Lord Byron )
When pleasure interferes with business, give up business. (Lord Byron )
Pleasure for one hour, a bottle of wine. Pleasure for one year a marriage; but pleasure for a lifetime, a garden. (Lord Byron )
Physical pleasure is a sensual experience no different from pure seeing or the pure sensation with which a fine fruit fills the tongue; it is a great unending experience, which is given us, a knowing of the world, the fullness and the glory of all knowing. And not our acceptance of it is bad; the bad thing is that most people misuse and squander this experience and apply it as a stimulant at the tired spots of their lives and as distraction instead of a rallying toward exalted moments. (Lord Byron )
I can think of nothing less pleasurable than a life devoted to pleasure. (Lord Byron )
You are quaffing drink from a hundred fountains: whenever any of these hundred yields less, your pleasure is diminished. But when the sublime fountain gushes from within you, no longer need you steal from the other fountains. (Lord Byron )
Pleasures are all alike simply considered in themselves: he that hunts, or he that governs the commonwealth, they both please themselves alike, only we commend that, whereby we ourselves receive some benefit. (Lord Byron )
Enjoy present pleasures in such a way as not to injure future ones. (Lord Byron )
So enjoy present pleasures as to not mar those to come. (Lord Byron )
That man is the richest whose pleasures are the cheapest. (Lord Byron )
The eruption of lived pleasure is such that in losing myself I find myself; forgetting that I exist, I realize myself. (Lord Byron )
Everyone is dragged on by their favorite pleasure. (Lord Byron )
Pleasure is the object, duty and the goal of all rational creatures. (Lord Byron )
Work is often the father of pleasure. (Lord Byron )
