More quotes by Rudyard Kipling
And what should they know of England who only England know?
Rudyard Kipling
There rise her timeless capitals of empires daily born, whose plinths are laid at midnight and whose streets are packed at morn and here come tired youths and maids that feign to love or sin in tones like rusty razor blades to tunes like smitten tin.
Rudyard Kipling
They copied all they could copy, But they couldn't copy my mind And I left them sweatin' and stealin', A year and a half behind.
Rudyard Kipling
Never was isle so little, never was sea so lone, But over the scud and the palm-trees an English flag was flown.
Rudyard Kipling
Oh East is East and West is West and never the twain shall meet.
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
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
He who faces no calamity gains no courage.
Rudyard Kipling
There's no jealousy in the grave.
Rudyard Kipling
Each dog barks in his own yard!
Rudyard Kipling
Not only do words infect, egotize, narcotize, and paralyze, but they enter into and colour the minutest cells of the brain. . . .
Rudyard Kipling
The jungle speaks to me because I know how to listen.
Rudyard Kipling
And that is called paying the Dane-geld but we've proved it again and again, that if once you have paid him the Dane-geld you never get rid of the Dane.
Rudyard Kipling
Being kissed by a man who didn't wax his moustache was-like eating an egg without salt.
Rudyard Kipling
God gives all men all earth to love, but since man's heart is small, ordains for each one spot shall prove belov?d over all.
Rudyard Kipling
The tumalt and shouting dies, The captains and the kings depart. Still stands thine ancient sacrifice, An humble and a contrite heat. Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet, Lest we forget, lest we forget.
Rudyard Kipling
The masterless man . . . afflicted with the magic of the necessary words. . . . Words that may become alive and walk up and down in the hearts of the hearers.
Rudyard Kipling
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew to serve your turn long after they are gone, and so hold on when there is nothing in you except the will which says to them: 'Hold on!'
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
One learns more from a good scholar in a rage than from a score of lucid and laborious drudges.
Rudyard Kipling
