We can't compare people. Every person has an unique talent or ability.
Rudyard Kipling [born December 30, 1865, Bombay (now Mumbai), India—died January 18, 1936, London, England] was an English novelist, short-story writer, poet, and journalist chiefly remembered for his celebration of British imperialism, poems of British soldiers in India and his tales for children.
In 1907, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in consideration of the power of observation, originality of imagination, virility of ideas and remarkable talent for narration. This made him the youngest and the first English-language writer to be honoured with the Nobel Prize in Literature. He also won the Audie Award for Audio Drama and Excellence in Production in 2016, and the Gold Medal of the Royal Society of Literature in 1926
Kipling's works of fiction include the Jungle Book duology, The Second Jungle Book, the Just So Stories and many short stories, including " The Man Who Would Be King”. His poems include "Mandalay", "Gunga Din", "The Gods of the Copybook Headings” etc.
He is a patriotic and encouraging author who wrote many thoughtful and meaningful novels, stories, poems and quotes. He expresses a British soldier's longing for the exoticism of the East, particularly Mandalay, a city in Myanmar in the poem “Mandalay”. In the poem "Gunga Din" he describes the life and death of Gunga Din, an Indian water carrier. He begins by discussing the nature of service in India. The Jungle Book series teaches us to not be cowards and to face our fears courageously by describing the social life of the wolf pack the justice and natural order of life in the jungle. Throughout “The Man Who Would Be King,” Daniel Dravot's ambition is boundless. It teaches us to follow our ambitions, but not to be hubris and arrogant.
William Shakespeare (bapt. 26 April[b] 1564 – 23 April 1616)[c] was an English playwright, poet and actor. He is widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world's greatest dramatist.[2][3][4] He is often called England's national poet and the "Bard of Avon" (or simply "the Bard").[5][d] His extant works, including collaborations, consist of some 39 plays,[e] 154 sonnets, three long narrative poems, and a few other verses, some of uncertain authorship. His plays have been translated into every major living language and are performed more often than those of any other playwright.[7] He remains arguably the most influential writer in the English language, and his works continue to be studied and reinterpreted.
Shakespeare was born and raised in Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwickshire. At the age of 18, he married Anne Hathaway, with whom he had three children: Susanna and twins Hamnet and Judith. Sometime between 1585 and 1592, he began a successful career in London as an actor, writer, and part-owner of a playing company called the Lord Chamberlain's Men, later known as the King's Men. At age 49 (around 1613), he appears to have retired to Stratford, where he died three years later. Few records of Shakespeare's private life survive; this has stimulated considerable speculation about such matters as his physical appearance, his sexuality, his religious beliefs and whether the works attributed to him were written by others.[8][9][10]
Shakespeare produced most of his known works between 1589 and 1613.[11][12][f] His early plays were primarily comedies and histories and are regarded as some of the best works produced in these genres. He then wrote mainly tragedies until 1608, among them Hamlet, Romeo and Juliet, Othello, King Lear, and Macbeth, all considered to be among the finest works in the English language.[2][3][4] In the last phase of his life, he wrote tragicomedies (also known as romances) and collaborated with other playwrights.
Many of Shakespeare's plays were published in editions of varying quality and accuracy in his lifetime. However, in 1623, two fellow actors and friends of Shakespeare's, John Heminges and Henry Condell, published a more definitive text known as the First Folio, a posthumous collected edition of Shakespeare's dramatic works that included all but two of his plays.[13] Its Preface was a prescient poem by Ben Jonson that hailed Shakespeare with the now famous epithet: "not of an age, but for all time"
