If you can dream-and not make dreams your master;
If you can think-and not make thought 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:
He Dick,
waarom doe je niet veel voor een ander dan?
dan heeft de ander minder gedoe
