What is this," said the leopard,"that is so 'sclusively dark, and yet so full of little pieces of light?

Cites and Thrones and Powers
Stand in Time's eye
Which daily die;
But, as new buds put forth
To glad new men,
Out of the spend and unconsidered Earth,
The cities will rise again

If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And hold on when there's nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!

I had never seen the jungle. They fed me behind bars from an iron pan till one night I felt that I was Bagheera - the Panther - and no man's plaything, and I broke the silly lock with one blow of my paw and came away; and because I had learned the ways of men, I became more terrible in the jungle than Shere Khan.

TWENTY bridges from Tower to Kew -
Wanted to know what the River knew,
Twenty Bridges or twenty-two,
For they were young, and the Thames was old
And this is the tale that River told:

Go to quote


Има мълчание от велика ненавист
и мълчание от велика любов
И мълчание на дълбок душевен покой ,
И мълчанието на приятелството
преродило се в дълбока ненавист...

Има мълчание на невинно наказаните,
И мълчанието на умиращия,
ръката на когото внезапно стиска твоята..

Има мълчание между сина и бащата,
когато той не може да му обясни своя живот
макар,че неумението му да обяснява
е неговата трагедия

Има мълчание,когато мъжът и жената
няма какво да си кажат един на друг...
Има мълчание на загиналите в устрем
и плътното мълчание,което обгръща
сломените нации и победените Вождове...

А ето мълчанието на Линколн,
мислещ за своите млади години,
минали в разбити надежди...
И мълчанието на Наполеон след Ватерлоо...

Rudyard Kipling

It takes a great deal of Christianity to wipe out uncivilised Eastern instincts, such as falling in love at first sight.
