As I was walking among the fires of hell, delighted with the enjoyments of Genius, which to Angels look like torment and insanity.
Art can never exist without Naked Beauty displayed.
Are those who love, like those who died, risen again from death Immortal, in immortal torment, never to be delivered?
And we are put on earth a little space, that we may learn to bear the beams of love. And these black bodies and this sunburnt face, is but a cloud, and like a shady grove.
And I made a rural pen, and I stained the water clear, and I wrote my happy songs, every child may joy to hear.
Always be ready to speak your mind, and a base man will avoid you.
Active Evil is better than Passive Good.
Abstinence sows sand all over the ruddy limbs and flaming hair; but desire gratified plants fruits of life and beauty there.
A truth that’s told with bad intent beats all the lies you can invent.
A fool sees not the same tree that a wise man sees.
A dog starved at his master’s gate, predicts the ruin of the State.
A dead body revenges not injuries.
