He who faces no calamity gains no courage.
Rudyard Kipling
Image
Also, we will make promise. So long as The Blood endures, I shall know that your good is mine: ye shall feel that my strength is yours: In the day of Armageddon, at the last great fight of all, That Our House stand together and the pillars do not fall.
Rudyard Kipling
Image
When a crew and a captain understand each other to the core, it takes a gale, and more than a gale, to put their ship ashore.
Rudyard Kipling
Image
There is no sin so great as ignorance. Remember this.
Rudyard Kipling
Image
At twenty the things for which one does not care a damn should, properly, be many.
Rudyard Kipling
Image
If I were dammed of body and soul, I know whose prayers would make me whole, mother o' mine o mother o' mine.
Rudyard Kipling
Image
Delight in the little things.
Rudyard Kipling
Image
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
Image
If you can think–and not make thoughts your aim.
Rudyard Kipling
Image
We're all islands shouting lies to each other across seas of misunderstanding.
Rudyard Kipling

Rudyard Kipling
Image
Daughter am I in my mother's house, but mistress in my own.
Rudyard Kipling
Image
If I were hanged on the highest hill, Mother o' mine, O mother o' mine! I know whose love would follow me still Mother o' mine, O mother o' mine!
Rudyard Kipling
Image
All things considered, there are only two kinds of men in the world: those that stay at home and those that do not.
Rudyard Kipling
Image
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
Image
There are few things sweeter in this world than the guileless, hotheaded, intemperate, open admiration of a junior. Even a woman in her blindest devotion does not fall into the gait of the man she adores, tilt her bonnet to the angle at which he wears his hat, or interlard her speech with his pet oaths.
Rudyard Kipling
Image
Who has smelled the woodsmoke at twilight, who has seen the campfire burning, who is quick to read the noises of the night?
Rudyard Kipling
Image
And when your back stops aching and your hands begin to harden, You will find yourself a partner in the Glory of the Garden.
Rudyard Kipling
Image
Smells are surer than sounds or sights To make your heartstrings crack.
Rudyard Kipling
Image
If England was what England seems, An not the England of our dreams, But only putty, brass, an' paint, 'Ow quick we'd chuck 'er! But she ain't!
Rudyard Kipling
