Recently, I grab a William Blake’s verse in the Internet:
«Think in the morning. Act in the noon. Eat in the evening. Sleep in the night».
The guy who paste it considered this a good advice.
I read the sentence and I thought that it didn’t make sense. So, I decided to investigate.
You know what? It is included in a passage entitled “The voice of the devil”.
So, they are evil advices.
If you want to make them divine, you have to invert them:
“Eat in the morning. Sleep in the noon. Think in the evening. Act in the night.”
This would be the voice of God, from Blake’s point of view.
