William Blake
A skylark wounded in the wing, / A cherubim does cease to sing.
William Blake
How can a bird that is born for joy Sit in a cage and sing?
William Blake
The pride of the peacock is the glory of God. The lust of the goat is the bounty of God. The wrath of the lion is the wisdom of God. The nakedness of woman is the work of God.

William Blake
A dog starv'd at the master's gate Predicts the ruin of the State. A horse misus'd upon the road Calls to heaven for human blood. Each outcry of the hunted hare A fibre from the brain does tear, A skylark wounded on the wing, A cherubim does cease to sing.
William Blake
The worship of God is, Honouring his gifts in other men each according to his genius, and loving the greatest men best those who envy or calumniate great men hate God, for there is no other God.
William Blake
Poetry fettered, fetters the human race. Nations are destroyed or flourish in proportion as their poetry, painting, and music are destroyed or flourish.
William Blake
The voice of honest indignation is the voice of God.
William Blake
All wholesome food is caught without a net or trap.
William Blake
But when he has done this, let him not say that he knows better than his master, for he only holds a candle in sunshine.
William Blake
For everything that lives is holy, life delights in life.
William Blake
If a thing loves, it is infinite.
William Blake
I must create a system or be enslaved by another mans I will not reason and compare: my business is to create.
William Blake
Where any view of money exists, art cannot be carried on.
William Blake
God appears, and God is Light, to those poor souls who dwell in Night but does a Human Form display to those who dwell in realms of Day.
William Blake
The eye altering, alters all.
William Blake
I see the Past, Present & Future existing all at once Before me.
William Blake
