More quotes by Walt Whitman
There is no God any more divine than Yourself.
Walt Whitman
I heard what was said of the universe, heard it and heard it of several thousand years it is middling well as far as it goes - but is that all?
Walt Whitman
Strong and content I travel the open road.
Walt Whitman
Women sit or move to and fro, some old, some young, / The young are beautiful--but the old are more beautiful than the young.
Walt Whitman
Lo, the most excellent sun so calm and haughty, The violet and purple morn with just-felt breezes, The gentle soft-born measureless light, The miracle spreading bathing all, the fulfill'd noon, The coming eve delicious, the welcome night and the stars, Over my cities shining all, enveloping man and land.
Walt Whitman
What do you suppose will satisfy the soul, except to walk free and own no superior?
Walt Whitman
Was it doubted that those who corrupt their own bodies conceal themselves?
Walt Whitman
I dance with the dancers.
Walt Whitman
I am for those who believe in loose delights, I share the midnight orgies of young men, I dance with the dancers and drink with the drinkers.
Walt Whitman
Nothing can happen more beautiful than death.
Walt Whitman
Those who love each other shall become invincible.
Walt Whitman
This hour I tell things in confidence/ I might not tell everybody, but I will tell you.
Walt Whitman
Do anything, but let it produce joy.
Walt Whitman
I hear America singing, the varied carols I hear.
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. One world is aware, and by the far the largest to me, and that is myself, And whether I come to my own today or in ten thousand or ten million years, I can cheerfully take it now, or with equal cheerfulness, I can wait.
Walt Whitman
The habit of giving only enhances the desire to give.
Walt Whitman
I bequeath myself to the dirt to grow from the grass I love, If you want me again look for me under your bootsoles.
Walt Whitman
I have said that the soul is not more than the body, And I have said that the body is not more than the soul, And nothing, not God, is greater to one than one's-self is.
Walt Whitman
The art of art... is simplicity.
Walt Whitman
I say you shall yet find the friend you were looking for.
Walt Whitman
