Whitman Played

Famous quotes containing the words whitman and/or played:

    Walt Whitman, a Kosmos, of Manhattan the son,
    Turbulent, fleshy, sensual, eating, drinking and breeding,
    No sentimentalist, no stander above men and women or apart from them,
    No more modest than immodest.
    —Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    They sat together halfway up a cliff
    In a small niche let into it, the girl
    Brightly, as if a star played on the place,
    Paul darkly, like her shadow.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
