Song of the Open Road

Quotes from the free-spirited American poet Walt Whitman:
=============================================

"I believe a leaf of grass is no less than the journeywork of the stars."

"Love the earth and sun and animals, Despise riches, give alms to everyone that asks, Stand up for the stupid and crazy, Devote your income and labor to others . . . And your very flesh shall be a great poem. "

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