More quotes by William Blake
He who replies to words of doubt doth put the light of knowledge out.
William Blake
What is a wife and what is a harlot? What is a church and what is a theatre? are they two and not one? Can they exist separate? Are not religion and politics the same thing? Brotherhood is religion. O demonstrations of reason dividing families in cruelty and pride!
William Blake
I heard an Angel singing When the day was springing, Mercy, Pity, Peace Is the world's release.
William Blake
Can I see a falling tear, And not feel my sorrow's share?
William Blake
Every mortal loss is an immortal gain.

William Blake
A good local pub has much in common with a church, except that a pub is warmer, and there's more conversation.
William Blake
I myself do nothing. The Holy Spirit accomplishes all through me.
William Blake
Man has closed himself up, till he sees all things thro' narrow chinks of his cavern.
William Blake
There is no mistake so great as the mistake of not going on.
William Blake
