Image
By writing at the instant, the very heartbeat of life is caught.
Walt Whitman
Image
If any thing is sacred, the human body is sacred.
Walt Whitman
Image
I do not think seventy years is the time of a man or woman, Nor that seventy millions of years is the time of a man or woman, Nor that years will ever stop the existence of me, or any one else.
Walt Whitman
Image
Roaming in thought over the Universe, I saw the little that is Good steadily hastening towards immortality, And the vast all that is called Evil I saw hastening to merge itself and become lost and dead.
Walt Whitman
Image

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
Image
Swiftly arose and spread around me the peace and knowledge that pass all the argument of the earth, And I know that the hand of God is the promise of my own, And I know that the spirit of God is the brother of my own, And that all the men ever born are also my brothers, and the women my sisters and lovers, And that a kelson of the creation is love.
Walt Whitman

All architecture is what you do to it when you look upon it.
Walt Whitman
Image
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
Image
I will write the evangel-poem of comrades and of love.
Walt Whitman
Image
Whoever degrades another degrades me, And whatever is done or said returns at last to me.
Walt Whitman
Image
What beauty there is in words what a lurking curious charm in the sound some words.
Walt Whitman
Image
There can be no theory of any account unless it corroborate with the theory of the earth.
Walt Whitman
Image
The great city is that which has the greatest man or woman: if it be a few ragged huts, it is still the greatest city in the whole world.
Walt Whitman
Image
The fruition of beauty is no chance of hit or miss... it is inevitable as life.
Walt Whitman
Image
Be curious, not judgmental.
