Additional quotes by Rudyard Kipling

San Francisco is a mad city—inhabited for the most part by perfectly insane people, whose women are of a remarkable beauty.

No easy hope or lies
Shall bring us to our goal,
But iron sacrifice
Of body, will, and soul.
There is but one task for all—
One life for each to give.
What stands if Freedom fall?
Who dies if England live?

'E's a sort of a bloomin' cosmopolouse—soldier an' sailor too.
