Walt Whitman Quote

Where the city of the healthiest fathers stands,
Where the city of the best-bodied mothers stands,
There the great city stands.


'Song of the Broad Axe' (1881)


Where the city of the healthiest fathers stands, Where the city of the best-bodied mothers stands, There the great city stands.

Where the city of the healthiest fathers stands, Where the city of the best-bodied mothers stands, There the great city stands.

Where the city of the healthiest fathers stands, Where the city of the best-bodied mothers stands, There the great city stands.

Where the city of the healthiest fathers stands, Where the city of the best-bodied mothers stands, There the great city stands.
