In acknowledgement of The Greatest of Poetic Geniuses, born on this day in 1757; here are my favourite quotes:
“Excess of Sorrow laughs. Excess of Joy weeps.” (from The Marriage of Heaven & Hell, 1790).
“The Road of Excess Leads to the Palace of Wisdom.”
“Prudence is a rich, ugly old maid, courted by Incapacity.”
“The Tigers of Wrath are Wiser than the Horses of Instruction.”
William Blake; Born 28th November 1757. Never forgotten.
