“your brain is wider than the sky”

“The brain is wider than the sky, For, put them side by side, The one the other will include With ease, and you beside.”

“Higher and higher receded the sky, wider and wider spread the streak of dawn, whiter grew the pallid silver of the dew, more lifeless the sickle of the moon...”

“The universe is wider than our views of it.”

“The world stands out on either side No wider than the heart is wide;Above the world is stretched the sky,No higher than the soul is high.The heart can push the sea and landFarther away on either hand;The soul can split the sky in two,And let the face of God shine through.But East and West will pinch the heartThat can not keep them pushed apart;And he whose soul is flat—the skyWill cave in on him by and by.”

“Know the grave doth gape for thee thrice wider than for other men.”
