“The road to excess leads to the palace of wisdom…you never know what is enough until you know what is more than enough.”
-William Blake, The Marriage of Heaven and Hell

Foster Damon has noted that for Blake the major impediments to a free love society were corrupt human nature, not merely the intolerance of society and the jealousy of men, but the inauthentic hypocritical nature of human communication.
