We convince by our presence.
Whoever degrades another degrades me.
Every hour of every day is an unspeakably perfect miracle.
I too am not a bit tamed, I too am untranslatable.
A morning-glory at my window satisfies me more than the metaphysics of books.
A great city is that which has the greatest men and women.
Each of us inevitable; Each of us limitless-each of us with his or her right upon the earth.

If you’ve done it, it isn’t bragging.
There is no place like it, no place with an atom of its glory, pride, and exultancy. It lays its hand upon a man’s bowels; he grows drunk with ecstasy; he grows young and full of glory, he feels that he can never die.

I no doubt deserved my enemies, but I don’t believe I deserved my friends.
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.
I refuse putting from me the best that I am.
Stop this day and night with me and you shall possess the origin of all poems.
