 Seeing, hearing and feeling are miracles, and each part and tag of me is a miracle.

 Simplicity is the glory of expression

 Speech is the twin of my vision, it is unequal to measure itself, it provokes me forever, it says sarcastically, Walt you contain enough, why don't you let it out then?

 Stranger, if you passing meet me and desire to speak to me, why should you not speak to me? And why should I not speak to you?

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

 The beautiful uncut hair of graves.

 The beauty of independence, departure, actions that rely on themselves.

 The city sleeps and the country sleeps, the living sleep for their time, the dead sleep for their time, the old husband sleeps by his wife and the young husband sleeps by his wife; and these tend inward to me, and I tend outward to them, and such as it is to be of these more or less I am, and of these one and all I weave the song of myself.

 The damp of the night drives deeper into my soul.

 The dirtiest book of all is the expurgated book.

 The earth, that is sufficient, I do not want the constellations any nearer, I know they are very well where they are, I know they suffice for those who belong to them

 The game of ball is glorious,

 The great city is that which has the greatest man or woman: if it be a few ragged huts, it is still the greatest city in the whole world.
