I think I could turn and live...

I think I could turn and live with the animals, they are so placid and self contained; I stand and look at them long and long. They do not sweat and whine about their condition; They do not lie awake in the dark and weep for their sins; They do not make me sick discussing their duty to God; Not one is dissatisfied-not one is demented with the mania of owning things; Not one kneels to another, nor his kind that lived thousands of years ago; Not one is responsible or industrious over the whole earth.

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

this is thy hour o soul, thy ...

this is thy hour o soul, thy free flight into the wordless, away from books, away from art, the day erased, the lesson done, thee fully forth emerging, silent, gazing, pondering the themes thou lovest best, night, sleep, death and the stars.

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

Each of us inevitable; Each o...

Each of us inevitable; Each of us limitless-each of us with his or her right upon the earth.

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

Sail Forth- Steer for the dee...

Sail Forth- Steer for the deep waters only. Reckless O soul, exploring. I with thee and thou with me. For we are bound where mariner has not yet dared go. And we will risk the ship, ourselves, and all.

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

Re-examine all you have been ...

Re-examine all you have been told at school or church or in any book, dismiss whatever insults your own soul; and your very flesh shall be a great poem, and have the richest fluency, not only in its words, but in the silent lines of its lips and face, and between the lashes of your eyes, and in every motion and joint of your body.

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

I am not to speak to you, I a...

I am not to speak to you, I am to think of you when I sit alone or wake at night alone, I am to wait, I do not doubt I am to meet you again, I am to see to it that I do not lose you.

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

Give me the splendid, silent ...

Give me the splendid, silent sun with all his beams full-dazzling.

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

The secret of it all, is to w...

The secret of it all, is to write in the gush, the throb, the flood, of the moment – to put things down without deliberation – without worrying about their style – without waiting for a fit time or place. I always worked that way. I took the first scrap of paper, the first doorstep, the first desk, and wrote – wrote, wrote…By writing at the instant the very heartbeat of life is caught.

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

NOT I - NOT ANYONE else, can ...

NOT I - NOT ANYONE else, can travel that road for you, You must travel it for yourself.

The ecstasy is so short but the forgetting is so long.

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

Without enough wilderness Ame...

Without enough wilderness America will change. Democracy, with its myriad personalities and increasing sophistication, must be fibred and vitalized by regular contact with outdoor growths - animals, trees, sun warmth and free skies - or it will dwindle and pale.

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

To me, every hour of the ligh...

To me, every hour of the light and dark is a miracle. Every cubic inch of space is a miracle.

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

In this broad earth of ours, ...

In this broad earth of ours, Amid the measureless grossness and the slag, Enclosed and safe within its central heart, Nestles the seed of perfection.

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

Afoot and light-hearted I tak...

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 616 quotes

The road to wisdom is paved with excess. The mark of a true writer is their ability to mystify the familiar and familiarize the strange.

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

Whoever degrades another degrades me.

I sound my barbaric yawp over the rooftops of the world.

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

My call is the call of battle...

My call is the call of battle- I nourish active rebellion;/ He going with me must go well armed.

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

O me! O life!... of the quest...

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 616 quotes

I believe in the flesh and th...

I believe in the flesh and the appetites, Seeing, hearing, feeling, are miracles, and each part and tag of me is a miracle. Divine am I inside and out, and I make holy whatever I touch or am touched from, The scent of these armpits aroma finer than prayer, This head more than churches, bibles, and all the creeds.
