william Blake

“A truth that's told with bad intent

Beats all the lies you can invent.”

“If a thing loves, it is infinite.”

“No bird soars too high if he soars with his own wings.”

“The difference between a bad artist and a good one is:  The bad artist seems to copy a great deal; the good one really does.”

“The true method of knowledge is experiment.”

“To generalize is to be an idiot.”

“To see a world in a grain of sand,

And a heaven in a wildflower,

Hold infinity in the palm of your hand

and eternity in an hour.”

“What has reason to do with the art of painting?”

“When nations grow old the Arts grow cold

And Commerce settles on every tree.”
