A word of the faith that never balks, Here or henceforward it is all the same to me, I accept Time absolutely. It alone is without flaw, it alone rounds and completes all, That mystic baffling wonder alone completes all.
Walt Whitman

More quotes by Walt Whitman
We also ascend dazzling and tremendous as the sun, We found our own O my soul in the calm and cool of the daybreak.
Walt Whitman
Let that which stood in front go behind, let that which was behind advance to the front, let bigots, fools, unclean persons, offer new propositions, let the old propositions be postponed.
Walt Whitman
Here or henceforward it is all the same to me, I accept Time absolutely.
Walt Whitman
Have you reckon’d a thousand acres much? have you reckon’d the earth much? Have you practis’d so long to learn to read? Have you felt so proud to get at the meaning of poems?
Walt Whitman
Be curious, not judgmental.
Walt Whitman
Now I see the secret of making the best person: it is to grow in the open air and to eat and sleep with the earth.
Walt Whitman

Walt Whitman
Let your soul stand cool and composed before a million universes.
Walt Whitman
You will hardly know who I am or what I mean, But I shall be good health to you nevertheless, And filter and fibre your blood. Failing to fetch me at first keep encouraged, Missing me one place search another, I stop somewhere waiting for you.
Walt Whitman
The moon gives you light, and the bugles and the drums give you music, and my heart, O my soldiers, my veterans, my heart gives you love.
Walt Whitman
O YOU whom I often and silently come where you are, that I may be with you As I walk by your side, or sit near, or remain in the same room with you, Little you know the subtle electric fire that for your sake is playing within me.
Walt Whitman
For all these new and evolutionary facts, meanings, purposes, new poetic messages, new forms and expressions, are inevitable.
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
And as to you Death, and you bitter hug of mortality, it is idle to try to alarm me.
Walt Whitman
In the faces of men and women, I see God.
Walt Whitman
The powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse.
Walt Whitman
I see that I am to wait for what will be exhibited by death.
Walt Whitman
From this hour I ordain myself loos'd of limits and imaginary lines.
Walt Whitman
An electric chain seems to vibrate, as it were, between our brain and him or her preserved there [in a Daguerreotype] so well by the limner's cunning. Time, space, both are annihilated, and we identify the semblance with the reality.
