― Walt Whitman

“I have learned that to be with those I like is enough”
― Walt Whitman

“We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. So medicine, law, business, engineering... these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love... these are what we stay alive for.”
― Walt Whitman, Leaves of Grass

“I discover myself on the verge of a usual mistake.”
― Walt Whitman, Song of Myself
