More quotes by Walt Whitman
Agonies are one of my changes of garments.
Walt Whitman
If you done it, it ain't bragging.
Walt Whitman
Simplicity is the glory of expression.
Walt Whitman
Apart from the pulling and hauling stands what I am, Stands amused, complacent, compassionating, idle, unitary, Looks down, is erect, or bends an arm on an impalpable certain rest, Looking with side-curved head curious what will come next, Both in and out of the game and watching and wondering at it.
Walt Whitman
The earth is rude, silent, incomprehensible at first Be not discouraged - keep on - there are divine things, well envelop'd I swear to you there are divine things more beautiful than words can tell.
Walt Whitman
To die is different from what any one supposed, and luckier.
Walt Whitman
Was it doubted that those who corrupt their own bodies conceal themselves?
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
Beautiful that war and all its deeds of carnage, must in time be utterly lost.
Walt Whitman
I swear the earth shall surely be complete to him or her who shall be complete, The earth remains jagged and broken only to him or her who remains jagged and broken.
Walt Whitman
Copulation is no more foul to me than death is.
Walt Whitman
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.
Walt Whitman
Now I see that there is no such thing as love unreturn'd. The pay is certain, one way or another.
Walt Whitman
The eager and often inconsiderate appeals of reformers and revolutionists are indispensable to counterbalance the inertia and fossilism marking so large a part of human institutions.
Walt Whitman
The soul is always beautiful, it appears more or it appears less, it comes or it lags behind, It comes from its embowered garden and looks pleasantly on itself and encloses the world.
Walt Whitman
The truth is simple. If it was complicated, everyone would understand it.
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
The gift is to the giver, and comes back most to him - it cannot fail
Walt Whitman
You want to know a sure way to lose money? Buy what's popular and don't know what you are investing in.
Walt Whitman
Perhaps the efforts of the true poets, founders, religions, literatures, all ages, have been, and ever will be, our time and times to come, essentially the same - to bring people back from their present strayings and sickly abstractions, to the costless, average, divine, original concrete.
Walt Whitman
