William Blake
All pictures that's painted with sense and with thought / Are painted by madmen as sure as a groat / For the greater the fool in the pencil more blest, / And when they are drunk they always paint best.
William Blake
My mother groaned, my father wept, into the dangerous world I leapt.
William Blake
I must create a system or be enslaved by another mans I will not reason and compare: my business is to create.
