Unscrew the locks from the do...

Unscrew the locks from the doors ! Unscrew the doors themselves from their jambs !

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

Apart from the pulling and ha...

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 616 quotes

I swear I will never hencefor...

I swear I will never henceforth have to do with the faith that tells the best! I will have to do only with that faith that leaves the best untold.

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

O Earth, that hast no voice, ...

O Earth, that hast no voice, confide to me a voice!
O harvest of my lands! O boundless summer growths!
O lavish, brown, parturient earth! O infinite, teeming womb!
A verse to seek, to see, to narrate thee.

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

And as to you Death, and you ...

And as to you Death, and you bitter hug of mortality, it is idle to try to alarm me.... And as to you corpse, I think you are good manure, but that does not offend me, I smell the white roses sweet-scented and growing, I reach to the leafy lips — I reach to the polished breasts of melons. And as to you life, I reckon you are the leavings of many deaths, No doubt I have died myself ten thousand times before.

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

I dance with the dancers. ...

I dance with the dancers.

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

Through the ample open door o...

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 616 quotes

How beggarly appear arguments...

How beggarly appear arguments before a defiant deed!

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

I have sometimes thought that...

I have sometimes thought that the laws ought not to punish those actions of evil which are committed when the senses are steeped in intoxication.

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

And a summit and flower there...

And a summit and flower there is the feeling they have for each other,
And they are to branch boundlessly out of that lesson until it becomes omnific,
And until one and all shall delight us, and we them.

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

Now understand me well. It is...

Now understand me well. It is provided in the essence of things that from any fruition of success, no matter what, shall come forth something to make a greater struggle necessary.

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

Human bodies are words, myria...

Human bodies are words, myriads of words, (In the best poems re-appears the body, man's or woman's, well-shaped, natural, gay, Every part able, active, receptive, without shame or the need of shame.)

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

More and more too, the old na...

More and more too, the old name absorbs into me. Mannahatta, 'the place encircled by many swift tides and sparkling waters.' How fit a name for America's great democratic island city! The word itself, how beautiful! how aboriginal! how it seems to rise with tall spires, glistening in sunshine, with such New World atmosphere, vista and action!

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

Sure as the most certain sure...

Sure as the most certain sure .... plumb in the uprights, well entreated, braced in the beams, Stout as a horse, affectionate, haughty, electrical, I and this mystery we stand. Clear and sweet is my soul .... and clear and sweet is all that is not my soul, Lack one lacks both .... and the unseen is proved by the seen Till that becomes unseen and receives proof in its turn. To elaborate is no avail .... Learned and unlearned feel that it is so.

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

I have heard what the talkers...

I have heard what the talkers were talking, the talk of the beginning and the end, But I do not talk of the beginning or the end.

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

Give me juicy autumnal fruit,...

Give me juicy autumnal fruit, ripe and red from the orchard.

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

Lo! body and soul!--this land...

Lo! body and soul!--this land! Mighty Manhattan, with spires, and The sparkling and hurrying tides, and the ships; The varied and ample land,--the South And the North in the light--Ohio's shores, and flashing Missouri, And ever the far-spreading prairies, covered with grass and corn.

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

Great is Youth--equally great...

Great is Youth--equally great is Old Age--great are Day and Night. Great is Wealth--great is Poverty--great is Expression-great is Silence.

Walt Whitman 616 quotes

All truths wait in all things...

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 616 quotes

The soul is always beautiful,...

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.
