Every wolf's and lion's howl Raises from Hell a human soul.
William Blake
Image
You never know what is enough unless you know what is more than enough.
William Blake
Image
Does a firm persuasion that a thing is so, make it so? He replied, All poets believe it does. And in ages of imagination, this firm persuasion removes mountains but many are not capable of firm persuasion of anything.
William Blake
Image
To be an Error and to be Cast out is a part of God's Design.
