"Fate, show thy force; ourselves we do not owe; What is decreed must be, and be this so."
Destiny, sometimes also called fate, is a predetermined course of events. It may be conceived as a predetermined future, whether in general or of an individual.
"Two shall be born, the whole wide world apart, And speak in different tongues, and have no thought Each of the others being; and have no heed; And these, oer unknown seas to unknown lands Shall cross, escaping wreck, defying death; And, all unconsciously, shape every act to this one end: That one day out of darkness they shall meet And read lifes meanings in each others eyes."
Fate"Fate has carried me Mid the thick arrows: I will keep my stand— Not shrink and let the shaft pass by my breast To pierce another."
Fate"A millstone and the human heart are driven ever round, If they have nothing else to grind, they must themselves be ground."
Fate"Let those deplore their doom, Whose hope still grovels in this dark sojourn: But lofty souls, who look beyond the tomb, Can smile at Fate, and wonder how they mourn."
Fate"Human effort can be used for self-betterment and that there is no such thing as an external fate imposed by the gods."
Fate"If thou read this, O Cæsar, thou mayst live; If not, the Fates with traitors do contrive."
