More quotes by William Blake
A robin redbreast in a cage Puts all heaven in a rage.
William Blake
I am more famed in Heaven for my works than I could well conceive. In my brain are studies & chambers filled with books & pictures of old, which I wrote and painted in ages of Eternity before my mortal life and whose works are the delight & study of Archangels. Why, then, should I be anxious about the riches or fame of mortality?
William Blake
The hours of folly are measured by the clock but of wisdom, no clock can measure.
William Blake
A good local pub has much in common with a church, except that a pub is warmer, and there's more conversation.
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
The pride of the peacock is the glory of God.
William Blake
There is a place where Contrarieties are equally True.
William Blake
Little fly, thy summer's play My thoughtless hand has brushed away. Am not I a fly like thee? Or art not thou a man like me? For I dance and drink and sing, Till some blind hand shall brush my wing!
William Blake
The bird a nest, the spider a web, man friendship.
William Blake
A DIVINE IMAGE Cruelty has a human heart, And Jealousy a human face Terror the human form divine, And Secresy the human dress. The human dress is forged iron, The human form a fiery forge, The human face a furnace sealed, The human heart its hungry gorge.
William Blake
One thought fills immensity.
William Blake
Christianity is art and not money. Money is its curse.
William Blake
Then my verse I dishonor, my pictures despise, my person degrade and my temper chastise and the pen is my terror, the pencil my shame and my talents I bury, and dead is my fame.
William Blake
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
The moon, like a flower in heaven's high bower, with silent delight sits and smiles on the night.
William Blake
Truth can never be told so as to be understood and not be believed.
William Blake
For everything that lives is holy, life delights in life.
William Blake
The Goddess Fortune is the devil's servant, ready to kiss any one's ass.
William Blake
Love is weak when there is more doubt than there is trust, but love is most strong when you learn to trust even with all the doubts. If a thing loves, it is infinite.
William Blake
The best wine is the oldest, the best water the newest.
William Blake
