More quotes by 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 Bat that flits at close of Eve Has left the Brain that won't believe. The Owl that calls upon the Night Speaks the Unbeliever's fright.
William Blake
I'm sure this Jesus will not do Either for Englishman or Jew.
William Blake
Knowledge of ideal beauty is not to be acquired. It is born with us. Innate ideas are in every man, born with him theyare truly himself.
William Blake
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand.
William Blake
Auguries of innocence The emmet's inch and eagle's mile Make lame philosophy to smile. He who doubts from what he sees Will ne'er believe, do what you please.
William Blake
Imagination is the real and eternal world of which this vegetable universe is but a faint shadow.
William Blake
My mother bore me in the southern wild, And I am black, but O! my soul is white White as an angel is the English child, But I am black as if bereaved of light.

William Blake
To the eyes of the man of imagination, nature is imagination itself.
William Blake
He who does not imagine in stronger and better lineaments, and in stronger and better light than his perishing and mortal eye can see, does not imagine at all.
William Blake
The Man who pretends to be a modest enquirer into the truth of a self-evident thing is a Knave.
William Blake
A dog starved at his master's gate Predicts the ruin of the state.
William Blake
Jesus & his apostles & disciples were all artists
William Blake
Mercy, Pity, Peace Is the world's release.
William Blake
The fox condemns the trap, not himself.
William Blake
Nature has no outline. Imagination has.
William Blake
He who has suffered you to impose on him knows you.
William Blake
