"Making your mark on the world is hard. If it were easy everyone would do it. It takes patience. It takes commitment and it comes with plenty of failure along the way. The real test is not whether you avoid this failure because you won't. It is whether you let it harden or shame you into inaction or whether you learn from it where you choose to persevere." Barrack Obama

William Ernest Henley. 1849–1903
Invictus
OUT of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.
