More quotes by Walt Whitman
Something there is more immortal even than the stars.
Walt Whitman
I think I could turn and live with animals, they are so placid and self-contain'd, I stand and look at them long and long.
Walt Whitman
And as to me, I know nothing else but miracles
Walt Whitman
There's no doubt that I've deserved my enemies, but I don't think I've deserved my friends.
Walt Whitman
I accept reality and dare not question it.
Walt Whitman
All architecture is what you do to it when you look upon it.
Walt Whitman
Was it doubted that those who corrupt their own bodies conceal themselves?
Walt Whitman
An electric chain seems to vibrate, as it were, between our brain and him or her preserved there [in a Daguerreotype] so well by the limner's cunning. Time, space, both are annihilated, and we identify the semblance with the reality.
Walt Whitman
The soul is always beautiful, it appears more or it appears less, it comes or it lags behind, It comes from its embowered garden and looks pleasantly on itself and encloses the world.
Walt Whitman
The beauty of independence, departure, actions that rely on themselves.
Walt Whitman
Agonies are one of my changes of garments.
Walt Whitman
Sail Forth- Steer for the deep waters only. Reckless O soul, exploring. I with thee and thou with me. For we are bound where mariner has not yet dared go. And we will risk the ship, ourselves, and all.
Walt Whitman
People who serve you without love get even behind your back.
Walt Whitman
I pass death with the dying and birth with the new-wash'd babe, and am not contained between my hat and my boots.
Walt Whitman
I hate commas in the wrong places.
Walt Whitman
When one reaches out to help another he touches the face of God.
Walt Whitman
So here I sit in the early candle-light of old age-I and my book-casting backward glances over out travel'd road.
Walt Whitman
THIS dust was once the Man, / Gentle, plain, just and resolute—under whose cautious hand, / Against the foulest crime in history known in any land or age, / Was saved the Union of These States.
Walt Whitman
There is that indescribable freshness and unconsciousness about an illiterate person that humbles and mocks the power of the noblest expressive genius.
Walt Whitman
O joy of suffering! To struggle against great odds! to meet enemies undaunted! To be entirely alone with them! to find how much one can stand! To look strife, torture, prison, popular odium, death, face to face! To mount the scaffold! to advance to the muzzles of guns with perfect nonchalance! To be indeed a God!
Walt Whitman
