'If' by Rudyard Kipling read by Sir Michael Caine - Love the poem. Love Michael Caine. Love Hans Zimmer's song 'Rise'. Put them all together and it's pretty epic. This poem.... So wonderful, but this part: "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!'" Having been in that place, this part just punches me in the gut. Roger Federer, Wimbledon, Boardwalk Empire, Bernard Lavilliers, Science Fiction, Great Poems, If Rudyard Kipling, Follow Jesus
