More quotes by William Blake
Mercy is the golden chain by which society is bound together.
William Blake
The grave is Heaven's golden gate, And rich and poor around it wait O Shepherdess of England's fold, Behold this gate of pearl and gold!
William Blake
Error is created truth is eternal.
William Blake
I myself do nothing. The Holy Spirit accomplishes all through me.
William Blake
Poetry, Painting & Music, the three Powers in man of conversing with Paradise, which the flood did not sweep away.
William Blake
Commerce is so far from being beneficial to arts, or to empire, that it is destructive of both, as all their history shows, for the above reason of individual merit being its great hatred. Empires flourish till they become commercial, and then they are scattered abroad to the four winds.
William Blake
O white-robed Angel, guide my timorous hand to write as on a lofty rock with iron pen the words of truth, that all who pass may read.
William Blake
Active Evil is better than Passive Good.
William Blake
The nakedness of woman is the work of God.
William Blake
Innocence dwells with Wisdom, but never with ignorance.
William Blake
If the Sun and Moon should ever doubt, they'd immediately go out.
William Blake
If you have formed a circle to go into,Go into it yourself and see how you would do.
William Blake
The Angel that presided o'er my birth Said, 'Little creature, formed of joy and mirth, Go love without the help of any thing on earth'.
William Blake
If you have form'd a circle to go into, Go into it yourself, and see how you would do. They said this mystery never shall cease: The priest promotes war, and the soldier peace.
William Blake
The human mind cannot go beyond the gift of God, the Holy Ghost. To suppose that art can go beyond the finest specimens of art that are now in the world is not knowing what art is it is being blind to the gifts of the spirit.
William Blake
The imagination is not a state: it is the human existence itself.
William Blake
He whose face gives no light, shall never become a star.
William Blake
The ignorant Insults of Individuals will not hinder me from doing my duty to my Art
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
LOVE'S SECRET Never seek to tell thy love, Love that never told can be For the gentle wind doth move Silently, invisibly. I told my love, I told my love, I told her all my heart, Trembling, cold, in ghastly fears. Ah! she did depart! Soon after she was gone from me, A traveller came by, Silently, invisibly: He took her with a sigh.
William Blake
