Image
Knowledge enormous makes a god of me.
John Keats
Image
I do think better of womankind than to suppose they care whether Mister John Keats five feet high likes them or not.
John Keats
Image
Let us away, my love, with happy speed There are no ears to hear, or eyes to see, - Drown'd all in Rhenish and the sleepy mead. Awake! arise! my love and fearless be, For o'er the southern moors I have a home for thee.
John Keats
Image
The roaring of the wind is my wife and the stars through the window pane are my children. The mighty abstract idea I have of beauty in all things stifles the more divided and minute domestic happiness.
John Keats
Image
Open afresh your rounds of starry folds, Ye ardent Marigolds.
John Keats
Image
Who would wish to be among the commonplace crowd of the little famous - who are each individually lost in a throng made up of themselves?
John Keats
Image
Dancing music, music sad, Both together, sane and mad.
John Keats
Image
Poetry should surprise by a fine excess and not by singularity, it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts, and appear almost a remembrance.
John Keats
Image
I have so much of you in my heart.
John Keats
Image
To bear all naked truths, And to envisage circumstance, all calm, That is the top of sovereignty
John Keats
Image
A man's life of any worth is a continual allegory, and very few eyes can see the mystery of his life, a life like the scriptures, figurative.
John Keats
Image
And how they kist each other's tremulous eyes.
John Keats
Image
We have woven a web, you and I, attached to this world but a separate world of our own invention.
John Keats
Image
I have met with women whom I really think would like to be married to a Poem and to be given away by a Novel.
John Keats
Image
As the Swiss inscription says: Sprechen ist silbern, Schweigen ist golden,- Speech is silvern, Silence is golden or, as I might rather express it, Speech is of Time, Silence is of Eternity.
John Keats
Image
Don't be discouraged by a failure. It can be a positive experience.
John Keats
Image
The uttered part of a man's life, let us always repeat, bears to the unuttered, unconscious part a small unknown proportion. He himself never knows it, much less do others.
John Keats
Image
And there shall be for thee all soft delight That shadowy thought can win, A bright torch, and a casement ope at night, To let the warm Love in!
John Keats
Image
It appears to me that almost any man may like the spider spin from his own inwards his own airy citadel.
John Keats
Image
Poetry should be great and unobtrusive, a thing which enters into one's soul, and does not startle it or amaze it with itself, but with its subject.
