Through the ample open door of the peaceful country barn, A sun-lit pasture field, with cattle and horses feeding And haze, and vista, and the far horizon, fading away.

More quotes by Walt Whitman
I henceforth tread the world, chaste, temperate, an early riser, a steady grower.
Walt Whitman
I sing the body electric, The armies of those I love engirth me and I engirth them, They will not let me off till I go with them, respond to them, And discorrupt them, and charge them full with the charge of the soul.
Walt Whitman
From this hour I ordain myself loos'd of limits and imaginary lines.
Walt Whitman
Books are to be called for and supplied on the assumption that the process of reading is not a half-sleep, but in the highest sense an exercise, a gymnastic struggle that the reader is to do something for himself.
Walt Whitman
I cannot be awake for nothing looks to me as it did before, Or else I am awake for the first time, and all before has been a mean sleep.
Walt Whitman
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
Beautiful that war and all its deeds of carnage, must in time be utterly lost.
Walt Whitman
I say to mankind, Be not curious about God. For I, who am curious about each, am not curious about God - I hear and behold God in every object, yet understand God not in the least.
Walt Whitman
When the materials are all prepared and ready, the architects shall appear.
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
Most works are most beautiful without ornament.
Walt Whitman
By writing at the instant, the very heartbeat of life is caught.
Walt Whitman
I will not descend among professors and capitalists.
Walt Whitman
A simple separate person is not contained between his hat and his boots.
Walt Whitman
I bequeath myself to the dirt to grow from the grass I love, If you want me again look for me under your bootsoles.
Walt Whitman
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
I know perfectly well my own egotism.
Walt Whitman
I do not ask the wounded person how he feels, I myself become the wounded person.
Walt Whitman
Thunder on! Stride on! Democracy. Strike with vengeful stroke!
Walt Whitman
Dazzling and tremendous how quick the sun-rise would kill me, if I could not now and always send sun-rise out of me.
Walt Whitman
