E bem nos disse: William Blake (#1)



"The path of excess leads to the tower of wisdom."


“The man who never in his mind and thoughts travel'd to heaven is no artist.”


“Never seek to tell thy love,
Love that never told can be;
For the gentle wind does move
Silently, invisibly.”


“Love seeketh not itself to please,
nor for itself hath any care,
but for another gives its ease,
and builds a Heaven in Hell's despair.”


“If a thing loves, it is infinite.”


You never know what is enough unless you know more than enough.
