Image
I love doctors and hate their medicine.
Walt Whitman
Image
Joy, shipmate, joy! (Pleased to my soul at death I cry), Our life is closed, our life begins, The long, long anchorage we leave, The ship is clear at last, she leaps! She swiftly courses from the shore, Joy, shipmate, joy!
Walt Whitman
Image
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
Image
Now understand me well. It is provided in the essence of things that from any fruition of success, no matter what, shall come forth something to make a greater struggle necessary.
Walt Whitman
Image
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
I think of few heroic actions, which cannot be traced to the artistical impulse. He who does great deeds, does them from his innate sensitiveness to moral beauty.
Walt Whitman
Image
I hear and behold God in every object, yet understand God not in the least.
Walt Whitman
Image
I give you my hand, I give you my love more precious than money, I give you myself before preaching or law Will you give me yourself?
Walt Whitman

The truth is simple. If it was complicated, everyone would understand it.
Walt Whitman
Image
Nothing can happen more beautiful than death.
Walt Whitman
Image
I will You, in all, Myself, with promise to never desert you, To which I sign my name.
Walt Whitman
Image
Day by day and night by night we were together - all else has long been forgotten by me.
Walt Whitman
Image
Nothing endures but personal qualities.
Walt Whitman
Image
Logic and sermons never convince, The damp of the night drives deeper into my soul.
Walt Whitman
Image
I am not contain'd between my hat and boots.
Walt Whitman
Image
If any thing is sacred, the human body is sacred.
Walt Whitman
Image
Out of the cradle endlessly rocking, Out of the mocking bird's throat, the musical shuttle, . . . . A reminiscence sing.
Walt Whitman
Image
That's beautiful: the hurrah game! well — it's our game: that's the chief fact in connection with it: America's game: has the snap, go fling, of the American atmosphere — belongs as much to our institutions, fits into them as significantly, as our constitutions, laws: is just as important in the sum total of our historic life.

Walt Whitman, a kosmos, of Manhattan the son, Turbulent, fleshy, sensual, eating, drinking and breeding, No sentimentalist, no stander above men and women or apart from them, No more modest than immodest.
