Rudyard Kipling Quotes, Fall Quotes, Men Quotes

There are few things sweeter in this world than the guileless, hotheaded, intemperate, open admiration of a junior.

If you can walk with the crowd and keep your virtue, Or walk with Kings-nor lose the common touch; If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you; If all men count with you, but none too much; If you can fill the unforgiving minute With sixty seconds' worth of distance run, Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it, And - which is more - you'll be a man my son!
