To see a world in a grain of sand and a heaven in a wildflower.
William Blake
Image
O Earth, O Earth, return! Arise from out the dewy grass Night is worn And the morn Rises from the slumbrous mass.
William Blake
Image
Everything is beautiful in its own way. Exuberance is beauty.

Image
Naught can deform the human race Like to the armor's iron brace.
William Blake
Image
In the universe, there are things that are known, and things that are unknown, and in between, there are doors.
William Blake

Knowledge of ideal beauty is not to be acquired. It is born with us. Innate ideas are in every man, born with him theyare truly himself.
William Blake

What seems to be, is, to those to whom it seems to be, and is productive of the most dreadful consequences to those to whom it seems to be, even of torments, despair, eternal death.
William Blake

All futurity seems teeming with endless destruction never to be repelled Desperate remorse swallows the present in a quenchless rage.
William Blake
Image
The vision of Christ that thou dost see is my vision's greatest enemy . Both read the Bible day and night, but thou read'st black where I read white. His seventy disciples sent against religion and government .
William Blake
Image
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
Image
We are led to believe a lie When we see not through the eye.
William Blake
Image
Never seek to tell thy love Love that never told can be. For the gentle wind does move silently.. invisibly.
William Blake
Image
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
Image
There is a place where Contrarieties are equally True.
William Blake
Image
O Winter! bar thine adamantine doors: The north is thine there hast thou build thy dark, Deep-founded habitation. Shake not thy roofs, Nor bend thy pillars with thine iron car.
William Blake
Image
God only acts and is, in existing beings or men.
William Blake
Image
As a man is, so he sees.
William Blake
Image
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
Image
The worship of God is, Honouring his gifts in other men each according to his genius, and loving the greatest men best those who envy or calumniate great men hate God, for there is no other God.
William Blake
