Not I, not any one else can travel that road for you, You must travel it for yourself. It is not far, it is within reach, Perhaps you have been on it since you were born and did not know, Perhaps it is everywhere on water and on land. Shoulder your duds dear son, and I will mine, and let us hasten forth, Wonderful cities and free nations we shall fetch as we go. If you tire, give me both burdens, and rest the chuff of your hand on my hip, And in due time you shall repay the same service to me, For after we start we never lie by again. This day before dawn I ascended a hill and look'd at the crowded heaven, And I said to my spirit When we become the enfolders of those orbs, and the pleasure and knowledge of every thing in them, shall we be fill'd and satisfied then? And my spirit said No, we but level that lift to pass and continue beyond. You are also asking me questions and I hear you, I answer that I cannot answer, you must find out for yourself. Sit a while dear son, Here are biscuits to eat and here is milk to drink, But as soon as you sleep and renew yourself in sweet clothes, I kiss you with a good-by kiss and open the gate for your egress hence. Long enough have you dream'd contemptible dreams, Now I wash the gum from your eyes, You must habit yourself to the dazzle of the light and of every moment of your life. Long have you timidly waded holding a plank by the shore, Now I will you to be a bold swimmer, To jump off in the midst of the sea, rise again, nod to me, shout, and laughingly dash with your hair.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Walt Whitman" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/walt-whitman/i-tramp-the-perpetual-journey-my-signs-are-a-rain-proof-coat-good/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/6ee/walt-whitman-265_child_i-tramp-the-perpetual-journey-my-signs-a_2537582.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/6ee/walt-whitman-265_child_i-tramp-the-perpetual-journey-my-signs-a_2537582.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/6ee/walt-whitman-265_child_i-tramp-the-perpetual-journey-my-signs-a_2537582.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“I tramp the perpetual journey My signs are a rain-proof coat, good shoes, and a staff cut from the woods, No…” — Walt Whitman", "creditText": "SMS4Smile Quotes", "creator": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#organization" } } } } ] }, { "@type": "CollectionPage", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/about/heaven-said/#webpage", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/about/heaven-said/", "name": "Heaven Said Quotes", "isPartOf": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#website" }, "mainEntity": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/about/heaven-said/#itemlist" }, "primaryImageOfPage": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/f79/william-carlos-williams-1841_heaven_the-hurricane-the-tree-lay-down-on-the-g_1376464.png" }, "description": "Browse 23 Heaven Said quotes by 21 authors.
