More quotes by William Blake
The eye altering, alters all.
William Blake
I cry, Love! Love! Love! happy happy Love! free as the mountain wind!
William Blake
Piping down the valleys wild, Piping songs of pleasant glee, On a cloud I saw a child, And he laughing said to me: Pipe a song about a Lamb. So I piped with merry cheer Piper, pipe that song again. So I piped he wept to hear.
William Blake
A skylark wounded in the wing, / A cherubim does cease to sing.
William Blake
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
I must create a system, or be enslav'd by another man's.
William Blake
Dear Mother, dear Mother, the Church is cold, But the Ale-house is healthy and pleasant and warm.
William Blake
In seed time learn, in harvest teach, in winter enjoy.
William Blake
A dog starv'd at the master's gate Predicts the ruin of the State. A horse misus'd upon the road Calls to heaven for human blood. Each outcry of the hunted hare A fibre from the brain does tear, A skylark wounded on the wing, A cherubim does cease to sing.
William Blake
Demonstration, similitude & harmony are objects of reasoning. Invention, identity & melody are objects of intuition.
William Blake
Hindsight is a wonderful thing but foresight is better, especially when it comes to saving life, or some pain!
William Blake
Tools were made and born were hands, Every farmer understands.
William Blake
Then the Parson might preach, & drink, & sing, And we'd be as happy as birds in the spring And modest dame Lurch, who is always at Church, Would not have bandy children, nor fasting, nor birch.
William Blake
There is a place where Contrarieties are equally True.
William Blake
How can the bird that is born for joy Sit in a cage and sing? How can a child, when fears annoy, But droop his tender wing, And forget his youthful spring?
William Blake
The fox condemns the trap, not himself.
William Blake
Little Lamb, who made thee? Dost thou know who made thee?
William Blake
Rhetoric completes the tools of learning. Dialectic zeros in on the logic of things, of particular systems of thought or subjects. Rhetoric takes the next grand step and brings all these subjects together into one whole.
William Blake
Mercy is the golden chain by which society is bound together.
William Blake
What is the price of experience? Do men buy it for a song? Or wisdom for a dance in the street? No, it is bought with the price of all the man hath, his house, his wife, his children.
