“I discover myself on the verge of a usual mistake.”

“Somehow I have been stunned. Stand back!Give me a little time beyond my cuffed head and slumbers and dreams and gaping,I discover myself on the verge of the usual mistake.”

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

“When I give, I give myself”

“I celebrate myself, and sing myself, And what I assume you shall assume,For every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you.”

“Henceforth I ask not good fortune. I myself am good fortune.”

“Behold I do not give lectures or a little charity, when I give I give myself.”
