3 quotes

I loafe and invite my soul,
I lean and loafe at my ease, observing a spear of summer grass.

I know I am deathless...
We have thus far exhausted
trillions of winters and summers,
There are trillions ahead, and
trillions ahead of them.

Leaves of Grass:
As to you, Life, I reckon you are the leavings of many deaths,
No doubt I have died myself ten thousand times before.
