Image
Innocence dwells with Wisdom, but never with ignorance.
William Blake
Image
Excessive sorrow laughs. Excessive joy weeps.
William Blake
Image
Down the winding cavern we groped our tedious way, till a void boundless as the nether sky appeared beneath us, and we held by the roots of trees and hung over this immensity but I said: if you please we will commit ourselves to this void and see whether providence is here also.
William Blake
Image
One thought fills immensity.
William Blake
Image
And we are put on earth a little space, That we may learn to bear the beams of love.
William Blake
Image
The best wine is the oldest, the best water the newest.
William Blake
Image
O Autumn, laden with fruit, and stained With the blood of the grape, pass not, but sit Beneath my shady roof there thou may'st rest, And tune thy jolly voice to my fresh pipe And all the daughters of the year shall dance! Sing now the lusty song of fruit and flowers.
William Blake
Image
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
Image
May God us keep From Single vision and Newton's sleep.
William Blake
Image
Innate ideas are in every man, born with him they are truly himself. The man who says that we have no innate ideas must be a fool and knave, having no conscience or innate science.
William Blake
Image
Men are admitted into heaven not because they have curbed or governed their passions, but because they have cultivate their understandings.
William Blake
Image
In every cry of every man, In every infant's cry of fear, In every voice, in every ban, The mind-forg'd manacles I hear.
William Blake
Image
Like a fiend in a cloud, With howling woe, After night I do crowd, And with night will go I turn my back to the east, From whence comforts have increased For light doth seize my brain With frantic pain.
William Blake
Image
I asked a thief to steal me a peach: He turned up his eyes. I asked a lithe lady to lie her down: Holy and meek, she cries. As soon as I went An angel came. He winked at the thief And smiled at the dame- And without one word spoke Had a peach from the tree, And 'twixt earnest and joke Enjoyed the lady.
William Blake
Image
The Fool shall not enter into Heaven let him be ever so Holy.
William Blake
Image
A truth that's told with bad intent beats all the lies you can invent.
William Blake
Image
Mere enthusiasm is the all in all.
William Blake
Image
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
Image
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
Image
thus men forgot that all deities reside in the human breast.
