More quotes by William Blake
Love to faults is always blind, always is to joy inclined. Lawless, winged, and unconfined, and breaks all chains from every mind.
William Blake
My mother bore me in the southern wild, And I am black, but O! my soul is white White as an angel is the English child, But I am black as if bereaved of light.
William Blake
Art is the tree of life. Science is the tree of death.
William Blake
May God us keep From Single vision and Newton's sleep.
William Blake
You never know what is enough unless you know what is more than enough.
William Blake
This life's dim windows of the soul Distorts the heavens from pole to pole And leads you to believe a lie When you see with, not through, the eye.
William Blake
The human mind cannot go beyond the gift of God, the Holy Ghost. To suppose that art can go beyond the finest specimens of art that are now in the world is not knowing what art is it is being blind to the gifts of the spirit.
William Blake
The grave is Heaven's golden gate, And rich and poor around it wait O Shepherdess of England's fold, Behold this gate of pearl and gold!
William Blake
Tyger! Tyger! burning bright In the forests of the night, What immortal hand or eye Could frame thy fearful symmetry?
William Blake
A tyrant is the worst disease, and the cause of all others.
William Blake
O white-robed Angel, guide my timorous hand to write as on a lofty rock with iron pen the words of truth, that all who pass may read.
William Blake
Silent as despairing love, and strong as jealousy.
William Blake
The Whole Business of Man is The Arts, & All Things Common.
William Blake
Thou art a man God is no more Thy own humanity Learn to adore
William Blake
Praises reap not! Joys laugh not! Sorrows weep not!
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
The fool who persists in his folly will become wise.
William Blake
The imagination is not a state: it is the human existence itself.
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
Energy is eternal delight.
William Blake
