More From Walt Whitman
- "He most honors my style who learns under it to destroy the teacher."
- "After you have exhausted what there is in business, politics, conviviality, and so on – have found that none of these finally satisfy, or permanently wear – what remains? Nature remains."
- "I am for those who believe in loose delights, I share the midnight orgies of young men, I dance with the dancers and drink with the drinkers."
More In Sympathy
- "I have a theory because I was being beaten up a lot by people outside of school, it was almost like if I could make myself sick enough they’d take sympathy on me."― Daniel Johns
- "I’m not looking for sympathy at all."― Arnold Schwarzenegger
- "It’s no good being nice and young and naive. There’s no good in that at all. You’ve got to do it all yourself, and you’ve gotta learn quick. And you can’t look for sympathy either."― Johnny Rotten
