More quotes by William Blake
The road of excess leads to the palace of wisdom.
William Blake
Men are admitted into heaven not because they have curbed and governed their passions or have no passions, but because they have cultivated their understandings. The treasures of heaven are not negations of passion, but realities of intellect, from which all the passions emanate uncurbed in their eternal glory.
William Blake
What is the price of experience? Do men buy it for a song? Or wisdom for a dance in the street? No, it is bought with the price of all the man hath, his house, his wife, his children.
William Blake
Embraces are comminglings from the head even to the feet, And not a pompous high priest entering by a secret place.
William Blake
The generations of men run on in the tide of time, but leave their destined lineaments permanent for ever and ever.
William Blake
Where there is money there is no art.
William Blake
Children of the future age Reading this indignant page Know that in a former time Love, sweet love, was thought a crime
William Blake
Art is the tree of life. Science is the tree of death.
William Blake
Come o'er the eastern hills, and let our winds Kiss thy perfumed garments let us taste Thy morn and evening breath scatter thy pearls Upon our love-sick land that mourns for thee.
William Blake
The pride of the peacock is the glory of God.
William Blake
A robin redbreast in a cage Puts all heaven in a rage.
William Blake
Hindsight is a wonderful thing but foresight is better, especially when it comes to saving life, or some pain!
William Blake
For all eternity, I forgive you and you forgive me.
William Blake
Prisons are built with stones of Law. Brothels with the bricks of religion.
William Blake
Pity would be no more, If we did not make somebody poor. Mercy no more could be, If all were happy as we.
William Blake
Those who enter the gates of heaven are not beings who have no passions or who have curbed the passions, but those who have cultivated an understanding of them.
William Blake
All the destruction in Christian Europe has arisen from deism, which is natural religion.
William Blake
Each man is haunted until his humanity awakens.
William Blake
If Christianity was morality, Socrates would be the Saviour.
William Blake
The Goddess Fortune is the devil's servant, ready to kiss any one's ass.
William Blake
