Walt Whitman
  • To have great poets, there must be great audiences.

  • 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.

  • Produce great men, the rest follows.

  • Judging from the main portions of the history of the world, so far, justice is always in jeopardy.

  • We convince by our presence.
