More quotes by William Blake
One Power alone makes a Poet: Imagination. The Divine Vision.
William Blake
I was angry with my friend: I told my wrath, my wrath did end. I was angry with my foe: I told it not, my wrath did grow.
William Blake
Life delights in life.
William Blake
Active Evil is better than Passive Good.
William Blake
God is the poetic genius in each of us.
William Blake
Can I see another's woe, And not be in sorrow too? Can I see another's grief, And not seek for kind relief? Can I see a falling tear, And not feel my sorrow's share? Can a father see his child Weep, nor be with sorrow filled? Can a mother sit and hear An infant groan, an infant fear? No, no! never can it be! Never, never can it be!
William Blake
Thou fair-hair'd angel of the evening, Now, whilst the sun rests on the mountains, light Thy bright torch of love thy radiant crown Put on, and smile upon our evening bed!
William Blake
A dead body revenges not injuries.
William Blake
Gratitude is heaven itself.
William Blake
Where others see but the dawn coming over the hill, I see the soul of God shouting for joy.
William Blake
Innate ideas are in every man, born with him they are truly himself. The man who says that we have no innate ideas must be a fool and knave, having no conscience or innate science.
William Blake
Naught can deform the human race Like to the armor's iron brace.
William Blake
Where lambs have nibbled, silent moves the feet of angels bright unseen they pour blessing, and joy without ceasing, on each bud and blossom, and each sleeping bosom.
William Blake
The ruins of time build mansions in eternity.
William Blake
Invention depends altogether upon execution or organization as that is right or wrong so is the invention perfect or imperfect.
William Blake
One thought fills immensity.
William Blake
Let the men do their duty & the women will be such wonders the female life lives from the light of the male: see a man's female dependants, you know the man.
William Blake
Struggling in my father's hands, Striving against my swaddling bands, Bound and weary, I thought best To sulk upon my mother's breast.
William Blake
None but blockheads copy each other.
William Blake
Sweet babe, in thy face Soft desires I can trace, Secret joys and secret smiles, Little pretty infant wiles.
William Blake
