“I am large, I contain multitudes”

“Do I contradict myself?Very well then I contradict myself,(I am large, I contain multitudes.)”

“I pass death with the dying and birth with the new-wash'd babe, and am not contained between my hat and my boots,”

“I am not to speak to you, I am to think of you when I sit alone or wake at night alone, I am to wait, I do not doubt I am to meet you again, I am to see to it that I do not lose you.”

“I am to wait, I do not doubt I am to meet you again / I am to see to it that I do not lose you”

“Why are there trees I never walk under but large and melodious thoughts descend upon me?”

“I am as bad as the worst, but, thank God, I am as good as the best. ”
