5670 George Gordon Noel Byron

 
NUMBER:5670
AUTHOR:George Gordon Noel Byron, Lord Byron (1788–1824)
QUOTATION:There is a pleasure in the pathless woods;
There is a rapture on the lonely shore;
There is society, where none intrudes,
By the deep sea, and music in its roar:
I love not man the less, but Nature more.
ATTRIBUTION:Childe Harold’s Pilgrimage, Canto iv. Stanza 178.
