If you try it, you'll be lonely often, and sometimes frightened.
The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. London : Weidenfeld and Nicolson, 1978 (p.271). If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, Or being lied about, don't deal in lies, Or being hated, don't give away to hating And yet don't look too good nor talk to 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 those two imposters just the same, If you can make one heap of all your winnings And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss, And lose, and start again at your beginnings And never breathe a word about your loss. Significant quotes in Rudyard Kiplings If with explanations. Quoted in Lord Birkenhead, Rudyard Kipling.
