The lust of the goat is the bounty of God.
William Blake
Pay attention to minute particulars. Take care of the little ones. Generalization and abstraction are the plea of the hypocrite, scoundrel, and knave.
William Blake
I'm sure this Jesus will not do Either for Englishman or Jew.
William Blake
The foundation of empire is art and science. Remove them or degrade them, and the empire is no more. Empire follows art and not vice versa as Englishmen suppose.
William Blake
The strongest poison ever known came from Caesar's laurel crown.
William Blake
For everything that lives is holy, life delights in life.
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
There is a smile of love, And there is a smile of deceit, And there is a smile of smiles In which these two smiles meet.
William Blake
We are led to believe a lie When we see not through the eye.

William Blake

William Blake

William Blake

William Blake
The world of imagination is the world of eternity.
William Blake
Energy is the only life, and is from the body and reason is the bound or outward circumference of energy. Energy is eternal delight.
William Blake
The apple tree never asks the beech how he shall grow, nor the lion, the horse, how he shall take his prey.
William Blake
Enlightenment means taking full responsibility for your life.
William Blake
Mercy is the golden chain by which society is bound together.
William Blake
And I made a rural pen, And I stained the water clear, And I wrote my happy songs Every Child may joy to hear.
William Blake
Why cannot the ear be closed to its own destruction? Or the glistening eye to the poison of a smile?
William Blake
