William Blake
Hindsight is a wonderful thing but foresight is better, especially when it comes to saving life, or some pain!
William Blake

William Blake
He who loves his enemies betrays his friends this surely is not what Jesus meant.
William Blake
To generalize is to be an idiot.
William Blake
To the eyes of a miser a guinea is more beautiful than the sun, and a bag worn with the use of money has more beautiful proportions than a vine filled with grapes.
William Blake
Always be ready to speak your mind, and a base man will avoid you.
William Blake
The difference between a bad artist and a good one is: the bad artist seems to copy a great deal the good one really does.
William Blake
