Walt Whitman Quotes:
Ocupation: Poet
Life: May 31, 1819 - March 26, 1892
Birthday: May 31
Death: March 26
The truest and greatest Poetry, (while subtly and necessarily always rhythmic, and distinguishable easily enough) can never again, in the English language, be express'd in arbitrary and rhyming metre, any more than the greatest eloquence, or the truest power and passion.
