Love seeketh only Self to please,
More quotes by William Blake
If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear to man as it is: infinite.
Truth can never be told so as to be understood, and not be believed.
If the fool would persist in his folly he would become wise.

Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,
And therefore is wing'd Cupid painted blind.
To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.
Not for the body, but for the heart; companion and company are needed.
Love seldom haunts the breast where learning lies,
And Venus sets ere Mercury can rise.
