More quotes by Walt Whitman
The ecstasy is so short but the forgetting is so long.
Walt Whitman
The real war will never get in the books.
Walt Whitman
A morning-glory at my window satisfies me more than the metaphysics of books.
Walt Whitman
O public road, I say back I am not afraid to leave you, yet I love you, you express me better than I can express myself.
Walt Whitman
This is the city, and I am one of the citizens/Whatever interests the rest interests me
Walt Whitman
My little notebooks were beginnings - they were the ground into which I dropped the seed... I would work in this way when I was out in the crowds, then put the stuff together at home.
Walt Whitman
All the past we leave behind We debouch upon a newer, mightier world, varied world, Fresh and strong the world we seize, world of labor and the march, Pioneers! O Pioneers!
Walt Whitman
All the things of the universe are perfect miracles, each as profound as any.
Walt Whitman
Each of us inevitable Each of us limitless-each of us with his or her right upon the earth.
Walt Whitman
I will You, in all, Myself, with promise to never desert you, To which I sign my name.
Walt Whitman
There is no object so soft but it makes a hub for the wheeled universe.
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 beautiful uncut hair of graves.
Walt Whitman
The art of art... is simplicity.
Walt Whitman
I know I am deathless. No doubt I have died myself ten thousand times before. I laugh at what you call dissolution, and I know the amplitude of time.
Walt Whitman
In the faces of men and women, I see God.
Walt Whitman
I announce the great individual, fluid as Nature, chaste, affectionate, compassionate, fully armed I announce a life that shall be copious, vehement, spiritual, bold, And I announce an end that shall lightly and joyfully meet its translation.
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
There is no place like it, no place with an atom of its glory, pride, and exultancy. It lays its hand upon a man's bowels he grows drunk with ecstasy he grows young and full of glory, he feels that he can never die.
Walt Whitman
Henceforth I ask not good fortune. I myself am good fortune.
Walt Whitman
