Keep your face always toward the sunshine - and shadows will... - Walt Whitman

"What is that you express in your eyes? It seems to me more than all the print I have read in my life."

"Whatever satisfies the soul is truth."

"Re-examine all you have been told. Dismiss what insults your soul."

"The art of art, the glory of expression and the sunshine of the light of letters, is simplicity."

"I bequeath myself to the dirt to grow from the grass I loveIf you want me again look for me under your boot-soles.You will hardly know who I am or what I meanBut I shall be good health to you nonethelessAnd filter and fibre your blood."
