More quotes by Walt Whitman
Over all the sky - the sky! Far, far out of reach, studded with eternal stars.
Walt Whitman

Walt Whitman
Great is the faith of the flush of knowledge and of the investigation of the depths of qualities and things.
Walt Whitman

The work for giants...to serve well the guns!
Walt Whitman
There was a child went forth every day, And the first object he looked upon, that object he became.
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
I hear and behold God in every object, yet understand God not in the least.
Walt Whitman
I do not ask the wounded person how he feels, I myself become the wounded person.
Walt Whitman
Old age: The estuary that enlarges and spreads itself grandly as it pours into the Great Sea.

Walt Whitman

Walt Whitman
Love, that is day and night - love, that is sun and moon and stars, Love, that is crimson, sumptuous, sick with perfume, no other words but words of love, no other thought but love.
Walt Whitman
Dismiss whatever insults your soul.
Walt Whitman
I find no sweeter fat than sticks to my own bones.
Walt Whitman
The future is no more uncertain than the present.
Walt Whitman
These are the days that must happen to you.
Walt Whitman
I dream in my dreams all the dreams of the other dreamers. And I become the other dreamers.
Walt Whitman
A Song of the good green grass! A song no more of the city streets A song of farms - a song of the soil of fields. A song with the smell of sun-dried hay, where the nimble pitchers handle the pitch-fork A song tasting of new wheat, and of fresh-husk'd maize.
