Rudyard Kipling
It is always a temptation to a rich and lazy nation, To puff and look important and to say:- 'Though we know we should defeat you, we have not the time to meet you, We will therefore pay you cash to go away.'
Rudyard Kipling
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
