“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 60 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.”

“Across a world where all men grieveAnd grieving strive the more,The great days range like tides and leaveOur dead on every shore.”

“I keep six honest serving men (they taught me all i knew); Theirs names are What and Why and When And How And Where and Who.”

“They are fools who kiss and tell'--Wisely has the poet sung.Man may hold all sorts of postsIf he'll only hold his tongue.”
