More quotes by William Blake
He who sees the Infinite in all things sees God.
William Blake
A DIVINE IMAGE Cruelty has a human heart, And Jealousy a human face Terror the human form divine, And Secresy the human dress. The human dress is forged iron, The human form a fiery forge, The human face a furnace sealed, The human heart its hungry gorge.
William Blake
If you cannot imagine with the mind's eye much more than you can see with the mortal eye, you have a very poor imagination indeed.
William Blake
Naught can deform the human race Like to the armor's iron brace.
William Blake
Truth can never be told so as to be understood and not be believed.
William Blake
In your own bosom you bear your heaven and earth, And all you behold, though it appears without, It is within, in your imagination, Of which this world of mortality is but a shadow.
William Blake
He who wants, but doesn't act, is a pest.
William Blake
The atoms of Democritus And Newton's particles of light Are sands upon the Red Sea shore, Where Israel's tents do shine so bright.
William Blake
What has reasoning to do with painting?
William Blake
The ignorant Insults of Individuals will not hinder me from doing my duty to my Art
William Blake
He who shall teach the child to doubtThe rotting grave shall ne'er get out.
William Blake
Joy and woe are woven fine, A clothing for the soul divine. Under every grief and pine Runs a joy with silken twine.
William Blake
Mercy, pity, and peace, Are the world's release.
William Blake
The Goddess Fortune is the devil's servant, ready to kiss any one's ass.
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
Bring me an axe and spade, Bring me a winding-sheet When I my grave have made Let winds and tempests beat: Then down I'll lie as cold as clay. True love doth pass away!
William Blake
O Earth, O Earth, return! Arise from out the dewy grass Night is worn And the morn Rises from the slumbrous mass.
William Blake
My Brother starv'd between two Walls,His Children's Cry my Soul appalls
William Blake
Those who restrain desire, do so because theirs is weak enough to be restrained and the restrainer or reason usurps its place & governs the unwilling. And being restrain'd it by degrees becomes passive till it is only the shadow of desire.
William Blake
In seed time learn, in harvest teach, in winter enjoy.
William Blake
