The glory of Christianity is to conquer by forgiveness. - William Blake

"The tree which moves some to tears of joy is in the eyes of others only a green thing that stands in the way. Some see nature all ridicule and deformity... and some scarce see nature at all. But to the eyes of the man of imagination, nature is imagination itself."

"He who would do good to another must do it in Minute Particulars: general Good is the plea of the scoundrel, hypocrite, and flatterer, for Art and Science cannot exist but in minutely organized Particulars."

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

"The bird a nest, the spider a web, man friendship."

"The lamb misused breeds public strifeAnd yet forgives the butcher's knife."
