fond of the poem because it gives us power, when you have hard times. Id like to read of the poem "If".
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are loosing 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, dont deal in lies,
Or being hated, dont give way to hating,
And yet dont look too good, nor talk too wise;
If you can dream - not make dreams your master:
If you can think - and not your thoughts your aim:
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two imposters just the same:
If you can bear to hear the truth youve spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build m up with worn- out tools;
If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
Аnd lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings - nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all man count with you, but non too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything thats in it,
And - which is more - youll be a Man, my son!
Если ты не можешь терпеть Правду, которою ты сказал,
И скаже
