More quotes by Walt Whitman
Man is about the same, in the main, whether with despotism, or whether with freedom.
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 me! O life!... of the questions of these recurring of the endless trains of the faithless... of cities filled with the foolish what good amid these, O me, O life?
Walt Whitman
Strange, (is it not?) that battles, martyrs, blood, even assassination should so condense - perhaps only really lastingly condense - a Nationality.
Walt Whitman
And if the body were not the soul, what is the soul?
Walt Whitman
I think I will do nothing for a long time but listen, And accrue what I hear into myself...and let sound contribute toward me.
Walt Whitman
Some people are so much sunshine to the square inch.
Walt Whitman

Walt Whitman
I loafe and invite my soul.
Walt Whitman
I keep thinking about you every few minutes all day.
Walt Whitman
Freedom - to walk free and own no superior.
Walt Whitman
The ecstasy is so short but the forgetting is so long.
Walt Whitman
I and this mystery, here we stand.
Walt Whitman
Me imperturbe, standing at ease in nature.
Walt Whitman
My ties and ballasts leave me - I travel - I sail - My elbows rest in the sea-gaps. I skirt the sierras. My palms cover continents - I am afoot with my vision.
Walt Whitman
It is a beautiful truth that all men contain something of the artist in them. And perhaps it is the case that the greatest artists live and die, the world and themselves alike ignorant what they possess.
Walt Whitman
All beauty comes from beautiful blood and a beautiful brain.
Walt Whitman
How beggarly appear arguments before a defiant deed!
Walt Whitman
I am too not a bit tamed, I too am untranslatable, I sound my barbaric yawp over the roofs of the world.
Walt Whitman
There was never any more inception than there is now, Nor any more youth or age than there is now And will never be any more perfection than there is now, Nor any more heaven or hell than there is now.
Walt Whitman
