More quotes by William Blake

William Blake

William Blake
The hand of Vengeance found the Bed To which the Purple Tyrant fled The iron hand crush'd the tyrant's head And became Tyrant in his stead.
William Blake
Dip him in the river who loves water.
William Blake

William Blake

William Blake
A dead body revenges not injuries.
William Blake

William Blake
Hindsight is a wonderful thing but foresight is better, especially when it comes to saving life, or some pain!
William Blake
Enlightenment means taking full responsibility for your life.
William Blake
[L]et light Rise from the chambers of the east, and bring The honey'd dew that cometh on waking day. O radiant morning.
William Blake
The Woman that does not love your Frowns Will never embrace your smiles.
William Blake
You become what you behold.
William Blake
The roaring of lions, the howling of wolves, the raging of the stormy sea, and the destructive sword, are portions of eternity, too great for the eye of man.
William Blake
They who forgive most shall be most forgiven.
William Blake
Sooner strangle an infant in its cradle than nurse unacted desires.
