"Do I contradict myself? Very well, I contradict myself, (I am large, I contain multitudes.)"
-In this quote Walt Whitman is relating himself to Ralph Waldo Emerson's beliefs that were [rotrayed in "Self Reliance." Whitman admits that he contradicts himself, because he will write about what he did one day that will contradict the previous day.
The past and present wilt- I have fill'd them, emptied them. And proceed to fill my next fold of the future.
-Now that the past and present are over I can start to create and fill my future.
