More quotes by Rudyard Kipling
If you give someone more than they can do, they will do it. If you give them only what they can do, they will do nothing.
Rudyard Kipling
Like the destroyer, the submarine has created its own type of officer and man with language and traditions apart from the rest of the service, and yet at the heart unchangingly of the Service
Rudyard Kipling
I am by nature a dealer in words, and words are the most powerful drug known to humanity.
Rudyard Kipling
Payday came and with it beer
Rudyard Kipling
Funny how the new things are the old things.
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 wild hawk to the wind-swept sky The deer to the wholesome wold And the heart of a man to the heart of a maid, As it was in the days of old.
Rudyard Kipling
A tale from which pieces have been raked out is like a fire that has been poked. One does not know the operation has been performed, but everyone feels the effect.
Rudyard Kipling
Often and often afterwards, the beloved Aunt would ask me why I had never told anyone how I was being treated. Children tell little more than animals, for what comes to them they accept as eternally established.
Rudyard Kipling
I have struck a city - a real city - and they call it Chicago... I urgently desire never to see it again. It is inhabited by savages.
Rudyard Kipling
I worked like a horse and I ate like a hog and I slept like a dead man.
Rudyard Kipling
If you can think–and not make thoughts your aim.
Rudyard Kipling
Tis beauty, so to speak, nor good talk necessarily. It's just IT. Some women will stay in a man's memory if they once walked down a street.
Rudyard Kipling
And that after this is accomplished, and the brave new world begins, when all men are paid for existing and no man must pay for his sins.
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
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
And some can pot begonias and some can bud a rose, And some are hardly fit to trust with anything that grows.
Rudyard Kipling
Though our smoke may hide the Heavens from your eyes, It will vanish and the stars will shine again, Because, for all our power and weight and size, We are nothing more than children of your brain!
Rudyard Kipling
Yes, making mock o' uniforms that guard you while you sleep
Rudyard Kipling
There aren't twelve-hundred people in the world who understand pictures. The others pretend and don't care.
Rudyard Kipling
