When I tell the truth, it is not for the sake of convincing those who do not know it, but for the sake of defending those that do. – William Blake
It is not because angels are holier than men or devils that makes them angels, but because they do not expect holiness from one another, but from God alone. – William Blake
Without contraries is no progression. Attraction and repulsion, reason and energy, love and hate, are necessary to human existence. – William Blake
