Words Of Wisdom

When I read the book, the biography famous,
And is this then (said I) what the author calls a man's life?
And so will some one when I am dead and gone write my life?
(As if any man really knew aught of my life,
Why even I myself I often think know little or nothing of my real life,
Only a few hints, a few diffused faint clews and indirections
I seek for my own use to trace out here.) - Leaves of Grass by Walt Whitman (1819–1892).

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? - Leaves of Grass by Walt Whitman (1819–1892).
