For Mercy has a human heart;
Pity, a human face;
And Love, the human form divine:
And Peace the human dress.

Songs of Innocence

Cruelty has a human heart
And jealousy a human face,
Terror the human form divine,
And secrecy the human dress.

The human dress is forged iron,
The human form a fiery forge,
The human face a furnace seal'd,
The human heart its hungry gorge.

Songs of Experience - This poem was discovered posthumously.

Ако бях млад, щях да напиша историята на човешката глупост, щях да се покатеря на върха на планината Макейб и да легна по гръб, и да подложа историята на главата си, и щях да взема от Земята малко от синьобялата отрова , която превръща хората в статуи, и щях да се превърна в статуя, която лежи по гръб, грозно ухилена прави дълъг нос, сами знаете Кому.

Everyone judges constantly: positively judging one person is the same as negatively judging everyone else; it is to say that that person is superior in some sense.

Senses of humor define people, as factions, deeper rooted than religious or political opinions. When carrying out everyday tasks, opinions are rather easy to set aside, but those whom a person shares a sense of humor with are his closest friends. They are always there to make the biggest influence.
