Fiction is Truth's elder sister. Obviously. No one in the world knew what truth was till some one had told a story.
Rudyard Kipling

Rudyard Kipling
The tumalt and shouting dies, The captains and the kings depart. Still stands thine ancient sacrifice, An humble and a contrite heat. Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet, Lest we forget, lest we forget.
Rudyard Kipling
Politicians. Little Tin Gods on Wheels.
Rudyard Kipling
Believe the best of everybody.
Rudyard Kipling
The python dropped his head lightly for a moment on Mowgli's shoulders. A brave heart and a courteous tongue, said he. They shall carry thee far through the jungle, manling. But now go hence quickly with thy friends. Go and sleep, for the moon sets and what follows it is not well that thou shouldst see.
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

Rudyard Kipling
For the sin they do by two and two they must pay for one by one.
Rudyard Kipling
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
I have no gift of words, but I speak the truth.
Rudyard Kipling
I have my own matches and sulphur, and I'll make my own hell.
Rudyard Kipling
Keep your head when all about you are losing theirs and blaming it on you.
Rudyard Kipling
We're all islands shouting lies to each other across seas of misunderstanding.
Rudyard Kipling
As I pass through my incarnations in every age and race, I make my proper prostrations to the Gods of the Market-Place. Peering through reverent fingers I watch them flourish and fall, And the Gods of the Copybook Headings, I notice, outlast them all.
Rudyard Kipling
And what should they know of England who only England know?
Rudyard Kipling
This is a brief life, but in its brevity it offers us some splendid moments, some meaningful adventures.
Rudyard Kipling
Of all the trees that grow so fair Old England to adorn, Greater are none beneath the Sun Than Oak, and Ash and Thorn.
Rudyard Kipling
