More quotes by Rudyard Kipling
If you can dream - and not make dreams your master.
Rudyard Kipling
Who has smelled the woodsmoke at twilight, who has seen the campfire burning, who is quick to read the noises of the night?
Rudyard Kipling
When the Hymalayan peasant meets the he-bear in his pride, He shouts to scare the monster, who will often turn aside. But the she-bear thus accosted, rends the peasant tooth and nail, For the female of the species is more deadly than the male.
Rudyard Kipling
I have seen something of this world, she said over the trays, and there are but two sorts of women in it-- those who take the strength out of a man, and those who put it back. Once I was that one, and now I am this.
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
Not only do words infect, egotize, narcotize, and paralyze, but they enter into and colour the minutest cells of the brain. . . .
Rudyard Kipling
She is intensely human, and lives to look upon life.
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
As the dawn comes up like thunder.
Rudyard Kipling
One cannot resist the lure of Africa.
Rudyard Kipling
If you can wait and not be tired of waiting, or being lied about, don't deal in lies. Or being hated, don't give way to hating, and yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise.
Rudyard Kipling
Brothers and Sisters, I bid you beware Of giving your heart to a dog to tear.
Rudyard Kipling
Fiction is Truth's elder sister. Obviously. No one in the world knew what truth was till some one had told a story.
Rudyard Kipling
How can you do anything until you have seen everything,or as much as you can?
Rudyard Kipling
Twenty bridges from Tower to Kew — (Twenty bridges or twenty two) — Wanted to know what the River knew, For they were young, and the Thames was old And this is the tale that River told.
Rudyard Kipling
All good people agree, And all good people say, All nice people, like Us, are We And every one else is They: But if you cross over the sea, Instead of over the way, You may end by (think of it!) looking on We As only a sort of They!
Rudyard Kipling
Never praise a sister to a sister, in the hope of your compliments reaching the proper ears, and so preparing the way for you later on. Sisters are women first, and sisters afterwards and you will find that you do yourself harm.
Rudyard Kipling
Words are, of course, the most powerful drug used by mankind.
Rudyard Kipling
The American has no language, he has a dialect, slang, provincialism, accent and so forth
Rudyard Kipling
Those who only know England know not England.
Rudyard Kipling
