More quotes by Walt Whitman

Walt Whitman
I act as the tongue of you, ... tied in your mouth . . . . in mine it begins to be loosened.
Walt Whitman
Give me solitude, give me Nature, give me again O Nature your primal sanities!
Walt Whitman

Walt Whitman

Walt Whitman
I believe in the flesh and the appetites, Seeing, hearing, feeling, are miracles, and each part and tag of me is a miracle. Divine am I inside and out, and I make holy whatever I touch or am touched from, The scent of these armpits aroma finer than prayer, This head more than churches, bibles, and all the creeds.
Walt Whitman

Walt Whitman
A child said What is the grass? fetching it to me with full hands How could I answer the child? I do not know what it is any more than he.

My words itch at your ears till you understand them
Walt Whitman
Henceforth I ask not good fortune. I myself am good fortune.
Walt Whitman
Do you guess I have some intricate purpose? Well I have, for the Fourth-month showers have, and the mica on the side of a rock has.
Walt Whitman
I know perfectly well my own egotism.

From this hour, freedom! Going where I like, my own master.
Walt Whitman
