If RudyardKipling If you can keep your head when allabout you
Are losing theirs and blaming it onyou;If you can trust yourself when allmen doubt you,But make allowance for theirdoubting too;If you can wait and not be tired by
waiting,Or, being lied about, don't deal inlies,Or, being hated, don't give way tohating,And yet don't look too good, nor talktoo wise;
If you can dream - and not makedreams your master;If you can think - and not makethoughts your aim;If you can meet with triumph anddisasterAnd treat those two imposters just

beginningsAnd never breath a word about yourloss;If you can force your heart and nerveand sinew
To serve your turn long after they aregone,
And so hold on when there is nothingin youExcept the Will which says to them:"Hold on";
If you can talk with crowds and keepyour virtue,Or walk with kings - nor lose the
common touch;If neither foes nor loving friends can
