Grown old in love from seven ...

Grown old in love from seven till seven times seven,I oft have wished for Hell for ease from Heaven.

William Blake 626 quotes

When thou seest an eagle, thou seest a portion of genius; lift up thy head!

William Blake 626 quotes

I turn my eyes to the schools...

I turn my eyes to the schools & universities of Europe And there behold the loom of Locke whose woof rages dire, Washed by the water-wheels of Newton. Black the cloth In heavy wreaths folds over every nation; cruel works Of many wheels I view, wheel without wheel, with cogs tyrannic Moving by compulsion each other: not as those in Eden, which Wheel within wheel in freedom revolve, in harmony & peace.

William Blake 626 quotes

O God, protect me from my fri...

O God, protect me from my friends, that they have not power over me. Thou hast giv'n me power to protect myself from thy bitterest enemies.

William Blake 626 quotes

For I dance And drink and sin...

For I dance And drink and sing, Till some blind hand Shall brush my wing. If thought is life And strength and breath And the want Of thought is death Then am I A happy fly If I live Or if I die

William Blake 626 quotes

Bring me my bow of burning gold: Bring me my arrows of desire: Bring me my spear: O clouds, unfold! Bring me my chariot of fire.

William Blake 626 quotes

The spirits of the air live o...

The spirits of the air live on the smells Of fruit; and joy, with pinions light, roves round The gardens, or sits singing in the trees.

William Blake 626 quotes

But to go to school in a summ...

But to go to school in a summer morn, O! It drives all joy away; Under a cruel eye outworn, The little ones spend the day In sighing and dismay.

William Blake 626 quotes

England! awake! awake! awake!...

England! awake! awake! awake! Jerusalem thy sister calls! Why wilt thou sleep the sleep of death And close her from thy ancient walls?

William Blake 626 quotes

Men are admitted into heaven ...

Men are admitted into heaven not because they have curbed or governed their passions, but because they have cultivate their understandings.

William Blake 626 quotes

Can I see another's woe, And ...

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 626 quotes

Thinking as I do that the Cre...

Thinking as I do that the Creator of this world is a very cruel being, and being a worshipper of Christ, I cannot help saying: ''the Son, O how unlike the Father!'' First God Almighty comes with a thump on the head. Then Jesus Christ comes with a balm to heal it.

William Blake 626 quotes

Rome & Greece swept Art into ...

Rome & Greece swept Art into their maw & destroy'd it; a Warlike State never can produce Art. It will Rob & Plunder & accumulate into one place, & Translate & Copy & Buy & Sell & Criticize, but not Make.

William Blake 626 quotes

Rhetoric completes the tools ...

Rhetoric completes the tools of learning. Dialectic zeros in on the logic of things, of particular systems of thought or subjects. Rhetoric takes the next grand step and brings all these subjects together into one whole.

William Blake 626 quotes

Embraces are comminglings fro...

Embraces are comminglings from the head even to the feet, And not a pompous high priest entering by a secret place.

William Blake 626 quotes

Degrade first the Arts if you...

Degrade first the Arts if you'd Mankind Degrade. Hire Idiots to Paint with cold light & hot shade: Give high Price for the worst, leave the best in disgrace, And with Labours of Ignorance fill every place.

William Blake 626 quotes

I was in a Printing-house in ...

I was in a Printing-house in Hell, and saw the method in which knowledge is transmitted from generation to generation.

William Blake 626 quotes

In every cry of every man, In...

In every cry of every man, In every infant's cry of fear, In every voice, in every ban, The mind-forg'd manacles I hear.

William Blake 626 quotes

Think not thou canst sigh a sigh And thy maker is not by; Think not thou canst weep a tear And thy maker is not near.

For Mercy has a human heart Pity, a human face: And Love, the human form divine, And Peace, the human dress.
