My fate cannot be mastered; it can only be collaborated with and thereby, to some extent, directed. Nor am I the captain of my soul; I am only its noisiest passenger
There is no fate that cannot be surmounted by scorn
All things are in fate, yet all things are not decreed by fate
Full of wisdom are the ordinations of fate
Fate hath no voice but the heart's impulse
Fate is unpenetrated causes
Many have reached their fate while dreading fate
I know that I shall meet my fate
Somewhere among the clouds above;
Those that I fight I do not hate,
Those that I guard I do not love;
My country is Kiltartan Cross,
My countrymen Kiltartan's poor.
Somewhere among the clouds above;
Those that I fight I do not hate,
Those that I guard I do not love;
My country is Kiltartan Cross,
My countrymen Kiltartan's poor.
The Wild Swans at Coole 1919. An Irish Airman Foresees His Death
No one is so accursed by fate,
No one so utterly desolate,
But some heart, though unknown,
Responds unto his own.
No one so utterly desolate,
But some heart, though unknown,
Responds unto his own.
