In it, the teacher, Mr. Keating, recites part of Walt Whitman's O Me! I Life! to his students. In this poem Whitman suggests that life is a \"powerful play,\" and that we each may \"contribute a verse.\" It took me some years to understand Whitman's meaning, but that line has resonated ever since, as has the movie - I'm a high school English teacher now - and I've been trying ever since to contribute my own verse. This is it. So please, read and enjoy, and I hope you too are inspired to contribute a verse to this, the greatest of plays, life.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46500883497111,"sku":"9781365155796","price":706.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781365155796.webp?v=1769184741","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/voices-9781365155796","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
