William Blake
It is the greatest of crimes to depress true art and science.
William Blake
Without Unceasing Practice nothing can be done. Practice is Art. If you leave off you are lost.
William Blake
My mother bore me in the southern wild, And I am black, but O! my soul is white White as an angel is the English child, But I am black as if bereaved of light.
William Blake
Can I see another's woe, And not be in sorrow too? Can I see another's grief, And not seek for kind relief? Can I see a falling tear, And not feel my sorrow's share? Can a father see his child Weep, nor be with sorrow filled? Can a mother sit and hear An infant groan, an infant fear? No, no! never can it be! Never, never can it be!
William Blake

William Blake
The world of imagination is the world of eternity. It is the divine bosom into which we shall all go after death of the vegetative body.
William Blake
Art is the tree of life. Science is the tree of death.
William Blake
Man has closed himself up, till he sees all things thro' narrow chinks of his cavern.

The Whole Business of Man is The Arts, & All Things Common.
