 I exist as I am, that is enough.

 I find no sweeter fat than sticks to my own bones.

 I have learned that to be with those I like is enough.

 I have said that the soul is not more than the body, And I have said that the body is not more than the soul, And nothing, not God, is greater to one than one's self is

 I heard what was said of the universe, heard it and heard it of several thousand years; it is middling well as far as it goes -- but is that all?

 I know nothing grander, better exercise, better digestion, more positive proof of the past, the triumphant result of faith in human kind, than a well-contested American national election

 I know perfectly well my own egotism

 I loafe and invite my soul, I lean and loafe at my ease observing a spear of summer grass

 I may be as bad as the worst, but, thank God, I am as good as the best.

 I no doubt deserved my enemies, but I don't believe I deserved my friends

 I say that democracy can never prove itself beyond cavil, until it founds and luxuriantly grows its own forms of art, poems, schools, theology, displacing all that exists, or that has been produced anywhere in the past, under opposite influences

 I say to mankind, Be not curious about God. For I, who am curious about each, am not curious about God - I hear and behold God in every object, yet understand God not in the least.

 I see great things in baseball. It's our game - the American game.

 I shall use America and democracy as convertible terms

 I sound my barbaric yawp over the roofs of the world
