Maxioms by Rudyard Kipling
No printed word, nor spoken plea can teach young minds what they should be. Not all the books on all read more
No printed word, nor spoken plea can teach young minds what they should be. Not all the books on all the shelves – but what the teachers are themselves.
And the Sons of Mary smile and are blessed--they know the angels
are on their side:
They know read more
And the Sons of Mary smile and are blessed--they know the angels
are on their side:
They know in them is the Grace confessed, and for them are the
Mercies multiplied;
They sit at the Feet, they hear the Word, they see how truly the
Promise runs;
They have cast their burden upon the Lord, and--the Lord He lays
it on Martha's sons!
Now it is not good for the Christian's health
To hustle the Aryan brown,
For the Christian read more
Now it is not good for the Christian's health
To hustle the Aryan brown,
For the Christian riles and the Aryan smiles,
And it weareth the Christian down.
And the end of the fight is a tombstone white
With the name of the late deceased--
And the epitaph drear: "A fool lies here
Who tried to hustle the East."
Everyone is more or less mad on one point.
Everyone is more or less mad on one point.
