More quotes by William Blake
He who pretends to be either painter or engraver without being a master of drawing is an imposter.
William Blake
Without contraries there is no progression.
William Blake
May God us keep From Single vision and Newton's sleep.
William Blake
Struggling in my father's hands, Striving against my swaddling bands, Bound and weary, I thought best To sulk upon my mother's breast.
William Blake

William Blake
Poetry fettered, fetters the human race. Nations are destroyed or flourish in proportion as their poetry, painting, and music are destroyed or flourish.
William Blake
We are led to believe a lie When we see not through the eye.
William Blake
I thought Love lived in the hot sunshine, But O, he lives in the moony light! I thought to find Love in the heat of day, But sweet Love is the comforter of night.
William Blake
Art degraded, Imagination denied.
William Blake
Make your own rules or be a slave to another man's.
William Blake
Expect poison from the standing water.

William Blake
You become what you behold.
William Blake
The eagle never lost so much time as when he submitted to learn of the crow
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
Without contraries is no progression. Attraction and repulsion, reason and energy, love and hate, are necessary to human existence.
William Blake
The fox condemns the trap, not himself.
William Blake
Painters are noted for being dissipated and wild.
William Blake
Colouring does not depend on where the colours are put, but on where the lights and darks are put, and all depends on form and outline, on where that is put.
