More quotes by Walt Whitman
...of two simple men I saw today on the pier in the midst of the crowd, parting the parting of dear friends, the one to remain hung on the other's neck and passionately kissed him. While the one to depart tightly pressed the one to remain in his arms.
Walt Whitman
All truths wait in all things, They neither hasten their own delivery nor resist it, They do not need the obstetric forceps of the surgeon, The insignificant is as big to me as any, (What is less or more than a touch).
Walt Whitman
We arrange our lives-even the best and boldest men and women that exist, just as much as the most limited-with reference to what society conventionally rules and makes right.
Walt Whitman
Praised be the fathomless universe, for life and joy, and for objects and knowledge curious.
Walt Whitman
There is no flaw or vacuum in the amount of the truth - but all is truth without exception And henceforth I will go celebrate any thing I see or am, And sing and laugh and deny nothing.
Walt Whitman
Afoot and light-hearted I take to the open road. Healthy, free, the world before me. The long brown path before me leading me wherever I choose. Henceforth, I ask not good fortune, I myself am good fortune. Henceforth, I whimper no more, postpone no more, need nothing.
Walt Whitman
Do I contradict myself? Very well, then I contradict myself, I am large, I contain multitudes.
Walt Whitman
Great is the faith of the flush of knowledge and of the investigation of the depths of qualities and things.
Walt Whitman
There's a man in the world who is never turned down, whatever he chances to stray he gets the glad hand in the populous town, or out where the farmers makes hay he's greeted with pleasure on deserts of sand, and deep in the aisles of the woods wherever he goes there's a welcoming hand-he's the man who delivers the goods.
Walt Whitman
NOT I - NOT ANYONE else, can travel that road for you, You must travel it for yourself.
Walt Whitman
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
And if the body were not the soul, what is the soul?
Walt Whitman
I say no body of men are fit to make Presidents, judges and generals, unless they themselves supply the best specimens of the same and that supplying one or two such specimens illuminates the whole body for a thousand years.
Walt Whitman
The strongest and sweetest songs yet remain to be sung.
Walt Whitman
Afoot and lighthearted I take to the open road, healthy, free, the world before me.
Walt Whitman
What beauty there is in words what a lurking curious charm in the sound some words.
Walt Whitman
Do you guess I have some intricate purpose? Well I have, for the Fourth-month showers have, and the mica on the side of a rock has.
Walt Whitman
We were together. I forget the rest.
Walt Whitman
Over all the sky - the sky! Far, far out of reach, studded with eternal stars.
Walt Whitman
I cannot too often repeat that Democracy is a word the real gist of which still sleeps, quite unawakened, notwithstanding the resonance and the many angry tempests out of which its syllables have come, from pen or tongue. It is a great word, whose history, I suppose, remains unwritten because that history has yet to be enacted.
Walt Whitman
