Rudyard Kipling
Four things greater than all things are Women and horses and power and War.
Rudyard Kipling
If you do not get what you want, it is a sure sign that you did not seriously want it.
Rudyard Kipling
One learns more from a good scholar in a rage than from a score of lucid and laborious drudges.
Rudyard Kipling
If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you, If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too!

Rudyard Kipling

Rudyard Kipling
We had a kettle we let it leak: Our not repairing made it worse. We haven't had any tea for a week... The bottom is out of the Universe.
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
The heart of a man to the heart of a maid- Light of my tents, be fleet- Morning awaits at the end of the world, And the world is all at our feet.
Rudyard Kipling
He who faces no calamity gains no courage.
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
OH, East is East, and West is West, and never the twain shall meet, Till Earth and Sky stand presently at God’s great Judgment Seat But there is neither East nor West, Border, nor Breed, nor Birth, When two strong men stand face to face, tho’ they come from the ends of the earth!
Rudyard Kipling
Shere Khan, the Big One, has shifted his hunting grounds. He will hunt among these hills for the next moon, so he has told me.
Rudyard Kipling
Everyone is more or less mad on one point.
Rudyard Kipling
If you can dream - and not make dreams your master.
Rudyard Kipling
