“What do you seek, so pensive and silent? What do you need, Camerado? Dear son! do you think it is love? Listen, dear son—listen, America, daughter or son! It is a painful thing to love a man or woman to excess—and yet it satisfies—it is great; But there is something else very great—it makes the whole coincide; It, magnificent, beyond materials, with continuous hands, sweeps and provides for all.”
― Walt Whitman, Poems by Walt Whitman

“The proper function of man is to live, not to exist.”
― Jack London, To Build a Fire

“I will make the poems of materials, for I think they are to be the most         spiritual poems; And I will make the poems of my body and of mortality, For I think I shall then supply myself with the poems of my soul, and of         immortality.”
― Walt Whitman, Poems by Walt Whitman

“Life is not a matter of holding good cards, but sometimes playing a poor hand well.”
― Jack London, To Build a Fire
