More quotes by William Blake
He who pretends to be either painter or engraver without being a master of drawing is an imposter.
William Blake
Every thing possible to be believ'd is an image of truth.
William Blake
Dip him in the river who loves water.
William Blake
Think not thou canst sigh a sigh And thy maker is not by Think not thou canst weep a tear And thy maker is not near.
William Blake
Shame is pride's cloak.
William Blake
Why cannot the ear be closed to its own destruction? Or the glistening eye to the poison of a smile?
William Blake
He who doubts from what he sees Will ne'er believe, do what you please.
William Blake
All futurity seems teeming with endless destruction never to be repelled Desperate remorse swallows the present in a quenchless rage.
William Blake
Why stand we here trembling around, calling on God for help, and not ourselves, in whom God dwells?
William Blake

William Blake
But if at church they would give some ale. And a pleasant fire our souls to regale. We'd sing and we'd pray all the live long day, Nor ever once from the church to stray.
William Blake
Rhetoric completes the tools of learning. Dialectic zeros in on the logic of things, of particular systems of thought or subjects. Rhetoric takes the next grand step and brings all these subjects together into one whole.
William Blake
Error is created truth is eternal.
William Blake
The pride of the peacock is the glory of God.
William Blake
Mercy, pity, and peace, Are the world's release.
William Blake
The difference between a bad artist and a good one is: the bad artist seems to copy a great deal the good one really does.
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
In the universe, there are things that are known, and things that are unknown, and in between, there are doors.
William Blake
O why was I born with a different face? Why was I not born like the rest of my race?
William Blake
How can the bird that is born for joy Sit in a cage and sing? How can a child, when fears annoy, But droop his tender wing, And forget his youthful spring?
