More quotes by William Blake
If the doors of perception were cleansed everything would appear to man as it is, infinite. For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things thru chinks of his cavern.
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
Travelers repose and dream among my leaves.
William Blake
He who kisses joy as it flies by will live in eternity's sunrise.
William Blake
Heaven is in a grain of sand.
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
Knowledge is Life with wings
William Blake

William Blake
Struggling in my father's hands, Striving against my swaddling bands, Bound and weary, I thought best To sulk upon my mother's breast.
William Blake
If the lion was advised by the fox, he would be cunning.
William Blake
Christ's crucifix shall be made an excuse for executing criminals.
William Blake
Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty !
William Blake
Can I see another's woe, and not be in sorrow too? Can I see another's grief, and not seek for kind relief?
William Blake
Art degraded, Imagination denied.
William Blake
I am more famed in Heaven for my works than I could well conceive. In my brain are studies & chambers filled with books & pictures of old, which I wrote and painted in ages of Eternity before my mortal life and whose works are the delight & study of Archangels. Why, then, should I be anxious about the riches or fame of mortality?
William Blake
But to go to school in a summer morn, O! It drives all joy away Under a cruel eye outworn, The little ones spend the day In sighing and dismay.
William Blake
The true method of knowledge is experiment.
