More quotes by Rudyard Kipling
When Earth's last picture is painted and the tubes are twisted and dried, When the oldest colours have faded, and the youngest critic has died, We shall rest, and, faith, we shall need it lie down for an aeon or two, Till the Master of All Good Workmen shall put us to work anew!
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

Rudyard Kipling
I keep six honest serving men.
Rudyard Kipling

Rudyard Kipling
Yes, making mock o' uniforms that guard you while you sleep
Rudyard Kipling
Meddling with another man's folly is always thankless work.
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
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
Single men in barricks don't grow into plaster saints.
Rudyard Kipling
We're all islands shouting lies to each other across seas of misunderstanding.
Rudyard Kipling
Sing, for faith and hope are high- None so true as you and I- Sing the Lovers' Litany: Love like ours can never die!
Rudyard Kipling
Daughter am I in my mother's house, but mistress in my own.
Rudyard Kipling
