"If" poem by Rudyard Kipling
1
If you can keep your head when all about you
2
are losing theirs and blaming it on you
3
if you can trust yourself when all men doubt you
4
but make allowance for their doubting too
5
if you can wait and not be tired by waiting
6
or being lied about, don’t deal in lies
7
or being hated, don’t give a way to hating
8
and yet don’t look too good, nor talk to wise
