When the sun rises, do you not see a round disc of fire somewhat like a guinea? O no, no, I see an innumerable company of the heavenly host crying Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty.

William Blake
If Christianity was morality, Socrates would be the Saviour.
William Blake
Error is created truth is eternal.
William Blake
Opposition is true friendship.
William Blake
What is grand is necessarily obscure to weak men. That which can be made explicit to the idiot is not worth my care.
William Blake
Nature has no outline. Imagination has.
William Blake
The inquiry in England is not whether a man has talents and genius, but whether he is passive and polite and a virtuous ass and obedient to noblemen's opinions in art and science. If he is, he is a good man. If not, he must be starved.
William Blake
The soul of sweet delight, can never be defiled.
William Blake

William Blake
Always be ready to speak your mind, and a base man will avoid you.
William Blake
Hindsight is a wonderful thing but foresight is better, especially when it comes to saving life, or some pain!
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
Mercy, Pity, Peace Is the world's release.
William Blake
Lo! now the direful monster, whose skin clings To his strong bones, strides o'er the groaning rocks: He withers all in silence, and his hand Unclothes the earth, and freezes up frail life.
William Blake
Thinking as I do that the Creator of this world is a very cruel being, and being a worshipper of Christ, I cannot help saying: ''the Son, O how unlike the Father!'' First God Almighty comes with a thump on the head. Then Jesus Christ comes with a balm to heal it.
William Blake
To see a world in a grain of sand and a heaven in a wildflower.
William Blake
A robin redbreast in a cage Puts all heaven in a rage.
William Blake
Pride is a personal commitment. It is an attitude which separates excellence from mediocrity.
William Blake
The Britons (say historians) were naked, civilized men, learned, studious, abstruse in thought and contemplation naked, simple, plain in their acts and manners wiser than after ages.
William Blake
It is an easy thing to talk of patience to the afflicted.
William Blake
