Excerpts from William Blake’s “Proverbs of Hell”
“No bird soars too high if he soars with his own wings.”
“The most sublime act is to set another before you.”
“Folly is the cloak of knavery.”
“What is now proved was once only imagined.”
“He who has suffered you to impose on him knows you.”
“Expect poison from the standing water.”
“You never know what is enough unless you know what is more than enough.”
“To create a little flower is the labour of ages.”
“Damn braces; bless relaxes.”
“As the air to a bird, or the sea to a fish, so is contempt to the contemptible.”
