Take up the White Man's burden--Send forth the best ye breed--Go bind your sons to exileTo serve your captives' need;To wait in heavy harness,On fluttered folk and wild--Your new-caught, sullen peoples,Half-devil and half-child.
Take up the White Man's burden--In patience to abide,To veil the threat of terrorAnd check the show of pride;By open speech and simple,An hundred times made plainTo seek another's profit,And work another's gain.
Take up the White Man's burden--The savage wars of peace--Fill full the mouth of FamineAnd bid the sickness cease;And when your goal is nearestThe end for others sought,Watch sloth and heathen FollyBring all your hopes to nought.…Take up the White Man's burden--And reap his old reward:The blame of those ye better,The hate of those ye guard--….Comes now, to search your manhoodThrough all the thankless yearsCold, edged with dear-bought wisdom,The judgment of your peers!

“We must find new lands from which we can easily
obtain raw materials and at the same time exploit the cheap slave labor that is
available from the natives of the colonies. The
colonies would also provide a dumping ground for the
surplus goods produced in our factories.”

“Africa is still lying ready for us it is our duty to take
it. It is our duty to seize every opportunity for
acquiring more territory and we should keep this one idea steadily before our eyes that more territory
simply means more of the Anglo-Saxon race more of the best the most human, most honourable race the
world possess.”

“… It is curious that the most advanced and most enlightened
century of all the centuries the sun has looked upon should have the
ghastly distinction of having produced this moldy and piety-mouthing hypocrite [Leopold II], this bloody monster whose mate is not findable in human history
anywhere, and whose personality will surely shame hell itself when
he arrives there--which will be soon, let us hope and trust.”
