Poem A Day Open in app

Classic poem

What General has a Good Army.

by Walt Whitman

WHAT General has a good army in himself, has a good army;

He happy in himself, or she happy in herself, is happy,

But I tell you you cannot be happy by others, any more than you can beget or conceive a

child

by others.
