More quotes by Rudyard Kipling
I have my own matches and sulphur, and I'll make my own hell.
Rudyard Kipling
Politicians. Little Tin Gods on Wheels.
Rudyard Kipling
Still stands thine ancient sacrifice - An humble and a contrite heart.
Rudyard Kipling
Gentleman-rankers out on the spree, damned from here to Eternity.
Rudyard Kipling
For the female of the species is more deadly than the male. A woman's guess is much more accurate than a man's certainty. Take my word for it, the silliest woman can manage a clever man But it takes a very clever woman to manage a fool. I never made a mistake in my life At least, never one that I couldn't explain away afterwards
Rudyard Kipling
When young lips have drunk deep of the bitter waters of hate, suspicion and despair, all the love in the world will not wholly take away that knowledge. Though it may turn darkened eyes for a while to the light, and teach faith where no faith was.
Rudyard Kipling
Yes, making mock o' uniforms that guard you while you sleep
Rudyard Kipling
Though our smoke may hide the Heavens from your eyes, It will vanish and the stars will shine again, Because, for all our power and weight and size, We are nothing more than children of your brain!
Rudyard Kipling
Body and spirit I surrendered whole To harsh instructors and received a soul... If mortal man could change me through and through From all I was What may the God not do?
Rudyard Kipling
For the female of the species is more deadly than the male.
Rudyard Kipling
There's a Legion that never was 'listed, That carries no colours or crest, But, split in a thousand detachments, Is breaking the road for the rest.
Rudyard Kipling
I've taken my fun where I've found it, An' now I must pay for my fun, For the more you 'ave known o' the others The less will you settle to one.
Rudyard Kipling
Not only do words infect, egotize, narcotize, and paralyze, but they enter into and colour the minutest cells of the brain. . . .
Rudyard Kipling
What is a woman that you forsake her, And the hearth-fire and the home-acre, To go with the old grey Widow-maker?
Rudyard Kipling
Both triumph and disaster are impostors.
Rudyard Kipling
Single men in barricks don't grow into plaster saints.
Rudyard Kipling
I wasted my substance, I know I did, on riotous living, so I did, but there's nothing on record to show I did more than my betters have done.
Rudyard Kipling
The Three in One, the One in Three? Not so! To my own Gods I go. It may be they shall give me greater ease than your cold Christ and tangled Trinities.
Rudyard Kipling
Never was isle so little, never was sea so lone, But over the scud and the palm-trees an English flag was flown.
Rudyard Kipling
I am by nature a dealer in words, and words are the most powerful drug known to humanity.
Rudyard Kipling
