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 impostors just the same;

If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken

Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,

Or watch the things you gave your life to,
broken,

And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out
tools

—“If,”
Rudyard Kipling
