‘Now, don’t be angry after you’ve been afraid. That’s the worst kind of cowardice’ ~ troop-horse in Servants of the Queen 

‘Men must always be making traps for men, or they are not content,’ said Mowgli. 

‘To hear is one thing; to know is another,’ said the Jackal, who had a very fair knowledge of proverbs, picked up by listening to men round the village fires of an evening. 

‘A liar, a flatterer, and a Jackal were all hatched out of one egg,’ said the Adjutant

Now the Jackal had spoken just to be listened to, for he knew flattery was the best way of getting things to eat, and the Mugger knew that the Jackal had spoken for this end, and the Jackal knew that the Mugger knew, and the Mugger knew that the Jackal knew that the Mugger knew; and so they were all very contented together.

‘And remember, child, hè who rebukes the world is rebuked by the world’ ~ Mugger 

‘We must live before we can learn,’ said the Mugger 

‘A liar only lies when he hopes to be believed.’ ~ Adjutant

‘What more can I wish? I have the Jungle, and the Favour of the Jungle! Is there more between sunrise and sunset?’ ~ Mowgli 

‘This thing was not living, but seeking to live’ - Kaa
