More quotes by William Blake
Ages are All Equal. / But Genius is Always Above The Age.
William Blake
I cry, Love! Love! Love! happy happy Love! free as the mountain wind!
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

Poetry fettered, fetters the human race. Nations are destroyed or flourish in proportion as their poetry, painting, and music are destroyed or flourish.
William Blake
When I tell the truth, it is not for the sake of convincing those who do not know it, but for the sake of defending those that do.
William Blake
Gratitude, in itself, is heaven.
William Blake
You never know what is enough unless you know what is more than enough.
