More quotes by William Blake

William Blake
I am under the direction of messengers from Heaven daily and nightly.
William Blake
Without contraries there is no progression.
William Blake
Works of Art can only be produc'd in Perfection where the Man is either in Affluence or is Above the Care of it.
William Blake
God forbid that Truth should be confined to Mathematical Demonstration!
William Blake
He who doubts from what he sees Will ne'er believe, do what you please.
William Blake
Man was made for joy and woe, and when this we rightly know through the world we safely go. Joy and woe are woven fine, a clothing for the soul to bind.
William Blake
All wholesome food is caught without a net or trap.
William Blake
Why stand we here trembling around, calling on God for help, and not ourselves, in whom God dwells?
William Blake
