Love is weak when there is more doubt than there is trust, but love is most strong when you learn to trust even with all the doubts. If a thing loves, it is infinite.

The look of love alarms Because 'tis filled with fire But the look of soft deceit Shall win the lover's hire.

I asked a thief to steal me a peach: He turned up his eyes. I asked a lithe lady to lie her down: Holy and meek, she cries. As soon as I went An angel came. He winked at the thief And smiled at the dame- And without one word spoke Had a peach from the tree, And 'twixt earnest and joke Enjoyed the lady.

He who sees the Infinite in all things sees God.
William Blake
Image
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

Do what you will this life's a fiction, And is made up of contradiction.
William Blake
Image
O why was I born with a different face? Why was I not born like the rest of my race?
