"For in itself a thought, a slumbering thought, is capable of years, and curdles a long life into one hour"
- Lord Byron
About this Quote
Lord Byron is suggesting that a single, effective idea can persist in a person's mind for years and condense an entire lifetime into a single minute. He is stressing the effectiveness of the human mind and its capability to keep an idea for a prolonged time period.
"Life is life - whether in a cat, or dog or man. There is no difference there between a cat or a man. The idea of difference is a human conception for man's own advantage"
