William Blake

William Blake
He who does not imagine in stronger and better lineaments, and in stronger and better light than his perishing and mortal eye can see, does not imagine at all.
William Blake
A musician, an artist, an architect: the man or woman who is not one of these is not a Christian.
William Blake

William Blake
