Additional quotes by Rudyard Kipling
I have my own matches and sulphur, and I'll make my own hell.
All good people agree,
And all good people say,
All nice people, like Us, are We

Instead of over the way,
You may end by (think of it!) looking on We
As only a sort of They!
The first condition of understanding a foreign country is to smell it.
