| SE ... If you can keep your head when all about you forgiveness and you make a fault; If you can trust the n It yourself when all men doubt you, but also to take account of the doubt; If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, Or being lied about, do not deal in lies, Or being hated , do not give way to hating, And yet do not if mbrare too good, nor talk too wise If you can dream and not make dreams your master If you can think and not make thoughts your aim; If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster And treat the stess or how those two impostors; If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken Twisted by knaves to fools Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken, And stoop and build with worn-out tools If you can make one heap of all your winnings And risk it on one turn of heads and tails, And lose, and start again from the beginning And never breathe a word about your loss; If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew To serve your purpose long after they are exhausted , And so hold on when there is nothing in you Except the Will who tells them: "Hold on!". If you can talk co n crowds and keep your virtue, Or walk with Kings nor lose the common touch with the people, If you can not hurt the the enemy nor the dearest friend, If all men count with you, but none too much; If you can fill the unforgiving minute valuing each minute that passes is Your the Earth and everything that's in it, And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son! (Rudyard Kipling) |
