Additional quotes by William Blake

Joy and woe are woven fine, a clothing for the soul divine. Under every grief and pine, runs a joy with silken twine.

Little Fly,
Thy summer's play
My thoughtless hand
Has brushed away. Am not I
A fly like thee?
Or art not thou
A man like me? For I dance,
And drink, and sing,
Till some blind hand
Shall brush my wing.

God appears and god is light
To those poor souls who dwell in night But does a human form display To those who dwell in realms of day
