More quotes by William Blake
Why cannot the ear be closed to its own destruction? Or the glistening eye to the poison of a smile?
William Blake
The thankful receiver bears a plentiful harvest.
William Blake
He who doubts from what he sees Will ne'er believe, do what you please.
William Blake
Excessive sorrow laughs. Excessive joy weeps.
William Blake
The countless gold of a merry heart, The rubies and pearls of a loving eye, The indolent never can bring to the mart, Nor the secret hoard up in his treasury.
William Blake
Mutual forgiveness of each vice. Such are the Gates of Paradise.
William Blake
For the Eye altering alters all The Senses roll themselves in fear And the flat Earth becomes a Ball.
William Blake
When a sinister person means to be your enemy, they always start by trying to become your friend.
William Blake
Work up imagination to the state of vision.
William Blake
Struggling in my father's hands, Striving against my swaddling bands, Bound and weary, I thought best To sulk upon my mother's breast.
William Blake
One thought fills immensity.
William Blake
I give you the end of a golden string, Only wind it into a ball, It will lead you in at Heaven's gate Built in Jerusalem's wall.
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
He who shall hurt the little wren Shall never be beloved by men.
William Blake
The apple tree never asks the beech how he shall grow, nor the lion, the horse, how he shall take his prey.
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
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 tigers of wrath are wiser than the horses of instruction.
William Blake
Hindsight is a wonderful thing but foresight is better, especially when it comes to saving life, or some pain!
William Blake
The Goddess Fortune is the devil's servant, ready to kiss any one's ass.
William Blake
