More quotes by 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
There are nine-and-sixty ways of constructing tribal lays, And every single one of them is right.
Rudyard Kipling
If you can dream - and not make dreams your master.
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
All sensible men are of the same religion, but no sensible man ever tells.
Rudyard Kipling
Delight in the little things.
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
If England was what England seems, An not the England of our dreams, But only putty, brass, an' paint, 'Ow quick we'd chuck 'er! But she ain't!
Rudyard Kipling
The American has no language, he has a dialect, slang, provincialism, accent and so forth
Rudyard Kipling
Never praise a sister to a sister, in the hope of your compliments reaching the proper ears.
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
There is no sin so great as ignorance. Remember this.
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
There are few things sweeter in this world than the guileless, hotheaded, intemperate, open admiration of a junior. Even a woman in her blindest devotion does not fall into the gait of the man she adores, tilt her bonnet to the angle at which he wears his hat, or interlard her speech with his pet oaths.
Rudyard Kipling
OH, East is East, and West is West, and never the twain shall meet, Till Earth and Sky stand presently at God’s great Judgment Seat But there is neither East nor West, Border, nor Breed, nor Birth, When two strong men stand face to face, tho’ they come from the ends of the earth!
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
The jungle speaks to me because I know how to listen.
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
A brave heart and a courteous tongue. They shall carry thee far through the jungle, Manling.
Rudyard Kipling
If you do not get what you want, it is a sure sign that you did not seriously want it.
Rudyard Kipling
