More quotes by Walt Whitman
The whole purpose of the universe is unerringly aimed at one thing - you.
Walt Whitman
O Captain my Captain! our fearful trip is done, / The ship has weathered every rack, the prize we sought is won
Walt Whitman
I see Hermes, unsuspected, dying, well-beloved, saying to the people, Do not weep for me, This is not my true country, I have lived banished from my true country - I now go back there, I return to the celestial sphere where every one goes in his turn.
Walt Whitman
There can be no theory of any account unless it corroborate with the theory of the earth.
Walt Whitman
And I will show that there is no imperfection in the present, and can be none in the future, And I will show that whatever happens to anybody it may be turned to beautiful results.
Walt Whitman
If you want me again look for me under your boot soles.
Walt Whitman
I am satisfied ... I see, dance, laugh, sing.
Walt Whitman
The smallest sprout shows there is really no death.
Walt Whitman
Logic and sermons never convince, The damp of the night drives deeper into my soul.
Walt Whitman
Nothing can happen more beautiful than death.
Walt Whitman
There is that indescribable freshness and unconsciousness about an illiterate person that humbles and mocks the power of the noblest expressive genius.
Walt Whitman
What a devil art thou, Poverty! How many desires - how many aspirations after goodness and truth - how many noble thoughts, loving wishes toward our fellows, beautiful imaginings thou hast crushed under thy heel, without remorse or pause!
Walt Whitman
Seeing, hearing, feeling, are miracles, and each part and tag of me is a miracle.
Walt Whitman
I exist as I am, that is enough.
Walt Whitman
The strongest and sweetest songs yet remain to be sung.
Walt Whitman
The question, O me! so sad, recurring - What good amid these, O me, O life? That you are here - that life exists and identity, that the powerful play goes on, and you may contribute a verse.
Walt Whitman
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. One world is aware, and by the far the largest to me, and that is myself, And whether I come to my own today or in ten thousand or ten million years, I can cheerfully take it now, or with equal cheerfulness, I can wait.
Walt Whitman
When lilacs last in the dooryard bloom'd / And the great star early droop'd in the western sky in the night, / I mourn'd, and yet shall mourn with ever-returning spring.
Walt Whitman
Day by day and night by night we were together - all else has long been forgotten by me.
Walt Whitman
Viewed freely, the English language is the accretion and growth of every dialect, race, and range of time, and is both the free and compacted composition of all.
Walt Whitman
