William Blake Quotes

"When the green woods laugh with the voice of joy, And the dimpling stream runs laughing by; When the air does laugh with our merry wit, And the green hill laughs with the noise of it""The angel that presided o’er my birth Said Little creature form’d of Joy and Mirth, Go love without the help of any Thing on Earth""Great things are done when men and mountains meet; This is not done by jostling in the street""The moon like a flower in heaven’s high bower with silent delight sits and smiles on the night""Truth can never be told so as to be understood and not be believed""Improvement makes straight roads; but the crooked roads without improvement are roads of genius ""A fool sees not the same tree that a wise man sees ""The bird a nest, the spider a web, man friendship ""Execution is the chariot of genius ""What is a man without desires, without Free Will ""The fox condemns the trap, not himself ""Without contraries is no progression ""The glory of Christianity is to conquer by forgiveness ""The weak in courage is strong in cunning ""Excessive sorrow laughs. Excessive joy weeps ""Prisons are built with stones of Law, brothels with bricks of Religion ""The man who never alters his opinions is like standing water and breeds reptiles of the mind ""Where mercy love and pity dwell there God is dwelling too""The thankful receiver bears a plentiful harvest""The tree which moves some to tears of joy is in the eyes of others only a green thing that stands in the way"
