Why a tender curb upon the youthful burning boy? Why a little curtain of flesh on the bed of our desire?
William Blake
Image
Thinking as I do that the Creator of this world is a very cruel being, and being a worshipper of Christ, I cannot help saying: ''the Son, O how unlike the Father!'' First God Almighty comes with a thump on the head. Then Jesus Christ comes with a balm to heal it.
William Blake
Image
How sweet I roamed from field to field, And tasted all the summer's pride, Till I the prince of love beheld, Who in the sunny beams did glide!
William Blake
Image
Active Evil is better than Passive Good.

Degrade first the Arts if you'd Mankind Degrade. Hire Idiots to Paint with cold light & hot shade: Give high Price for the worst, leave the best in disgrace, And with Labours of Ignorance fill every place.
William Blake
Image
Bring me my bow of burning gold: Bring me my arrows of desire: Bring me my spear: O clouds, unfold! Bring me my chariot of fire.
William Blake
Image
You throw the sand against the wind and the wind blows it back again.
William Blake

The busy bee has no time for sorrow.
William Blake
Image
Time is the mercy of Eternity without Time's swiftness Which is the swiftest of all things, all were eternal torment.
William Blake
Image
The glory of Christianity is to conquer by forgiveness.
William Blake
Image
Reason, or the ratio of all we have already known, is not the same that it shall be when we know more.
William Blake
Image
The crow wished everything was black, the Owl, that everything was white.
William Blake
Image
The thankful receiver bears a plentiful harvest.
William Blake
Image
If you, who are organised by Divine Providence for spiritual communion, refuse, and bury your talent in the earth, even though you should want natural bread, sorrow and desperation pursue you through life, and after death shame and confusion of face to eternity.
William Blake
Image
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
Image
For where'er the sun does shine, And where'er the rain does fall, Babe can never hunger there, Nor poverty the mind appall.
William Blake
Image
Those who restrain desire, do so because theirs is weak enough to be restrained and the restrainer or reason usurps its place & governs the unwilling. And being restrain'd it by degrees becomes passive till it is only the shadow of desire.
William Blake
