Quote by Lord (George Gordon) Byron
There is no such thing as a life of passion any more than a continuous earthquake, or an eternal fever. Besides, who would ever shave themselves in such a state?
Summary
This quote suggests that a life filled solely with intense passion and excitement is unrealistic and unsustainable. Comparing it to a continuous earthquake or an eternal fever implies that the constant extreme emotions would be chaotic and overwhelming. Additionally, the mention of shaving in such a state suggests that one would not be able to properly maintain oneself when consumed by overpowering passion. The quote highlights the idea that a balance of calmness and moderation is important in life, rather than constantly seeking intense experiences.
