More quotes by 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
The atoms of Democritus And Newton's particles of light Are sands upon the Red Sea shore, Where Israel's tents do shine so bright.
William Blake
The Whole Business of Man is The Arts, & All Things Common.
William Blake
In your own bosom you bear your heaven and earth, And all you behold, though it appears without, It is within, in your imagination, Of which this world of mortality is but a shadow.
William Blake
Christ's crucifix shall be made an excuse for executing criminals.
William Blake
He whose face gives no light, shall never become a star.
William Blake
I cry, Love! Love! Love! happy happy Love! free as the mountain wind!
William Blake
Like a fiend in a cloud, With howling woe, After night I do crowd, And with night will go I turn my back to the east, From whence comforts have increased For light doth seize my brain With frantic pain.
William Blake
The busy bee has no time for sorrow.
William Blake
When my mother died I was very young, And my father sold me while yet my tongue Could scarcely cry weep weep weep weep. So your chimneys I sweep, and in soot I sleep.
William Blake
One thought fills immensity.
William Blake
Invention depends altogether upon execution or organization as that is right or wrong so is the invention perfect or imperfect.
William Blake
The fox provides for himself, but God provides for the lion.
William Blake
The world of imagination is the world of eternity. It is the divine bosom into which we shall all go after death of the vegetative body.
William Blake
There can be no Good Will. Will is always Evil it is persecution to others or selfishness.
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
The modest Rose puts forth a thorn,The humble sheep a threat'ning horn:While the Lily white shall in love delight,Nor a thorn nor a threat stain her beauty bright.
William Blake
Everything is beautiful in its own way. Exuberance is beauty.
William Blake
The countless gold of a merry heart, The rubies and pearls of a loving eye, The indolent never can bring to the mart, Nor the secret hoard up in his treasury.
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
