“Lord Byron makes man after his own image, woman after his own heart; the one is a capricious tyrant, the other a yielding slave... Whatever he does, he must do in a more decided and daring manner than any one else; he lounges with extravagance, and yawns so as to alarm the reader!”
— William Hazlitt 1778 – 1830 CE
One of the English languages best art and literature critics of all time
from Spirit of the Age (1825)
