Everything possible to be believed is an image of truth.
---William Blake
What is the price of Experience? Do men buy it for a song?
Or wisdom for a dance in the street? No, it is bought with the price
Of all that a man hath, his house, his wife, his children
Wisdom is sold in the desolate market where none come to buy
And in the wither'd field where the farmer ploughs for bread in vain
It is an easy thing to triumph in the summer's sun
And in the vintage and to sing on the waggon loaded with corn
It is an easy thing to talk of patience to the afflicted
To speak the laws of prudence to the homeless wanderer
To listen to the hungry raven's cry in wintry season
When the red blood is fill'd with wine and with the marrow of lambs.
----William Blake
Fiery the Angels rose, & as they rose deep thunder rollβd Around their shores, indignant burning with the fires of Orc.
----William Blake
When the stars threw down their spears
And watered heaven with their tears:
Did he smile his work to see?
Did he who made the Lamb make thee?
----William Blake
O Rose, thou art sick.
The invisible worm
That flies in the night
In the howling storm
Has found out thy bed
Of crimson joy,
And his dark secret love
Does thy life destroy.
---William Blake
For Mercy has a human heart
Pity, a human face:
And Love, the human form divine,
And Peace, the human dress.
---William Blake
Children of the future age
Reading this indignant page
Know that in a former time
Love, sweet love, was thought a crime
---William Blake
When a sinister person means to be your enemy, they always start by trying to become your friend
---William Blake
