And eternity in an hour.

delighted with the enjoyments of Genius;
which to Angels look like torment and insanity.
I collected some of their Proverbs.
If the doors of perception were cleansed every thing would appear to man as it is, infinite.
Energy is eternal delight.
I have always found that angels have the vanity to speak of themselves as the only wise.
When thou seest an eagle, thou seest a portion of genius; lift up thy head!
To see a world in a grain of sand and a heaven in a wildflower, hold infinity in the palm of your hand and eternity in an hour.
Thou art a Man, God is no more.
Thy own humanity learn to adore.
To generalize is to be an idiot.
The man who never alters his opinions is like standing water, and breeds reptiles of the mind.
