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
Are you the new person drawn toward me?
Walt Whitman
Image
From this hour, freedom! Going where I like, my own master.
Walt Whitman
Image
The earth does not argue, Is not pathetic, has no arrangements, Does not scream, haste, persuade, threaten, promise, Makes no discriminations, has no conceivable failures, Closes nothing, refuses nothing, shuts none out.
Walt Whitman
Image
I inhale great draught of space...the east and west are mine...and the north and south are mine...I am grandeur than I thought...I did not know i held so much goodness.
Walt Whitman
Image
My call is the call of battle- I nourish active rebellion/ He going with me must go well armed.
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
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
O Earth, that hast no voice, confide to me a voice! O harvest of my lands! O boundless summer growths! O lavish, brown, parturient earth! O infinite, teeming womb! A verse to seek, to see, to narrate thee.
Walt Whitman
Image
I do not doubt but the majest and beauty of the world are latent in any iota of the world I do not doubt there is far more in trivialities, insects, vulgar persons, slaves, dwarfs, weeds, rejected refuse than I have supposed.
Walt Whitman
Image
Give me solitude, give me Nature, give me again O Nature your primal sanities!
Walt Whitman
Image
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.
Walt Whitman
Image
To die is different from what any one supposed, and luckier.
Walt Whitman
Image
In all people I see myself - none more, and not one a barleycorn less And the good or bad I say of myself, I say of them.
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
I discover myself on the verge of a usual mistake.
Walt Whitman
Image
The jour printer with gray head and gaunt jaws works at his case, He turns his quid of tobacco, while his eyes blur with the manuscript.
Walt Whitman
Image
The words of my book nothing, the drift of it everything.
Walt Whitman
Image
To me, every hour of the light and dark is a miracle. Every cubic inch of space is a miracle.
Walt Whitman
Image
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.
