Walt Whitman Quotes


An American poet, essayist and journalist. 
Walter "Walt" Whitman (May 31, 1819 – March 26, 1892) was an American poet, essayist and journalist.

Whitman is among the most influential poets in the American canon, often called the father of free verse. His work was very controversial in its time, particularly his poetry collection Leaves of Grass, which was described as obscene for its overt sexuality.

Here are some famous quotes by Walt Whitman.




Nothing endures but personal qualities.
