Rudyard Kipling
One can't prescribe books, even the best books, to people unless one knows a good deal about each individual person.
Rudyard Kipling
Nations have passed away and left no traces, And history gives the naked cause of it - One single simple reason in all cases They fell because their peoples were not fit.
Rudyard Kipling

Rudyard Kipling
I keep six honest serving men (they taught me all i knew) Theirs names are What and Why and When And How And Where and Who.
Rudyard Kipling
Our England is a garden, and such gardens are not made By singing 'Oh how wonderful' and sitting in the shade, While better men than we go out, and start their working lives By grubbing weeds from garden paths with broken dinner knives.
Rudyard Kipling
Brothers and Sisters, I bid you beware Of giving your heart to a dog to tear.
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
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
