More quotes by Walt Whitman
All music is what awakes from you when you are reminded by the instruments. It is not the violins and the cornets-it is not the oboe nor the beating drums, nor the score of the baritone singer singing his sweet romanza-nor that of the women's chorus it is nearer and farther than they.
Walt Whitman
A woman waits for me, she contains all, nothing lacking.
Walt Whitman
Speech is the twin of my vision, it is unequal to measure itself, it provokes me forever, it says sarcastically, Walt you contain enough, why don't you let it out then?
Walt Whitman
I exist as I am, that is enough, If no other in the world be aware, I sit content, And if each and all be aware, I sit content.
Walt Whitman
What has miserable, inefficient Mexico...to do with the great mission of peopling the New World with a noble race?
Walt Whitman
Why are there trees I never walk under but large and melodious thoughts descend upon me?
Walt Whitman
How beggarly appear arguments before a defiant deed!
Walt Whitman
There's no doubt that I've deserved my enemies, but I don't think I've deserved my friends.
Walt Whitman
All faults may be forgiven of him who has perfect candor.
Walt Whitman
I do not ask the wounded person how he feels, I myself become the wounded person.
Walt Whitman
I meet new Walt Whitmans everyday. There are a dozen of them afloat. I don't know which Walt Whitman I am.
Walt Whitman
There's a man in the world who is never turned down, whatever he chances to stray he gets the glad hand in the populous town, or out where the farmers makes hay he's greeted with pleasure on deserts of sand, and deep in the aisles of the woods wherever he goes there's a welcoming hand-he's the man who delivers the goods.
Walt Whitman
Whoever is not in his coffin and the dark grave, let him know he has enough.
Walt Whitman
I know perfectly well my own egotism.
Walt Whitman
The fruition of beauty is no chance of hit or miss... it is inevitable as life.
Walt Whitman
I act as the tongue of you, ... tied in your mouth . . . . in mine it begins to be loosened.
Walt Whitman
I think I will do nothing for a long time but listen, And accrue what I hear into myself...and let sound contribute toward me.
Walt Whitman
O lands! O all so dear to me - what you are, I become part of that, whatever it is.
Walt Whitman
The earth, that is sufficient, I do not want the constellations any nearer, I know they are very well where they are, I know they suffice for those who belong to them.
Walt Whitman
To die is different from what any one supposed, and luckier.
Walt Whitman
