Blake Claimed

Famous quotes containing the words blake and/or claimed:

    He is called by thy name,
    For he calls himself a Lamb,
    He is meek, and he is mild;
    He became a little child.
    I a child, and thou a lamb,
    We are called by his name.
    —William Blake (1757–1827)

    In contrast with envy, which usually occurs between two people and is focused upon another person’s qualities or possessions, jealousy occurs when a third person becomes a threat to a dyad. Jealousy involves the loss or the impending loss of a relationship that one wants to hold onto, a relationship that is vital to personal fulfillment and claimed as one’s own.
    Carol S. Becker (b. 1942)
