I am the master of my fate; I am the captain of my soul.

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.

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.

Everything here, but the soul of man, is a passing shadow. The only enduring substance is within.

Don't fret letting go of someone great. If they are great in the right way for you, nothing can keep them away.
