More quotes by William Blake
The bird a nest, the spider a web, man friendship.
William Blake
The roaring of lions, the howling of wolves, the raging of the stormy sea, and the destructive sword, are portions of eternity, too great for the eye of man.
William Blake
Christianity is art and not money. Money is its curse.
William Blake
Nature in darkness groans and men are bound to sullen contemplation in the night: restless they turn on beds of sorrow in their inmost brain feeling the crushing wheels, they rise, they write the bitter words of stern philosophy and knead the bread of knowledge with tears and groans.
William Blake
Why cannot the ear be closed to its own destruction? Or the glistening eye to the poison of a smile?
William Blake
The wrath of the lion is the wisdom of God.
William Blake
You cannot have Liberty in this world without what you call Moral Virtue, and you cannot have Moral Virtue without the slavery of that half of the human race who hate what you call Moral Virtue.
William Blake
They who forgive most shall be most forgiven.
William Blake
And I watered it in fears, Night and morning with my tears And I sunned it with smiles, And with soft deceitful wiles.
William Blake
The pure soul shall mount on native wings, . . . and cut a path into the heaven of glory.
William Blake
For all eternity, I forgive you and you forgive me.
William Blake
Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty !
William Blake
The ancient Poets animated all sensible objects with Gods or Geniuses, calling them by the names and adorning them with the properties of woods, rivers, mountains, lakes, cities, nations, and whatever their enlarged & numerous senses could perceive.
William Blake
Exuberance is beauty.
William Blake
thus men forgot that all deities reside in the human breast.
William Blake
Great things are done when men and mountains meet.
William Blake
To some people a tree is something so incredibly beautiful that it brings tears to the eyes. To others it is just a green thing that stands in the way.
William Blake
Pay attention to minute particulars. Take care of the little ones. Generalization and abstraction are the plea of the hypocrite, scoundrel, and knave.
William Blake
Eternity is in love with the productions of time.
William Blake
What is a wife and what is a harlot? What is a church and what is a theatre? are they two and not one? Can they exist separate? Are not religion and politics the same thing? Brotherhood is religion. O demonstrations of reason dividing families in cruelty and pride!
William Blake
