Quote by George Gordon Byron

? ? ? ? 'Tis to create, and in creating live? ? ? ? A being more intense, that we endow? ? ? ? With form our fancy, gaining as we give? ? ? ? The life we image, even as I do now.? ? ? ? What am I? Nothing: but not so art thou,? ? ? ? Soul of my thought! with whom I traverse earth,? ? ? ? Invisible but gazing, as I glow? ? ? ? Mix'd with thy spirit, blended with thy birth,And feeling still with thee in my crush'd feelings' dearth.


? ? ? ? 'Tis to create, and in creating live? ? ? ? A being
