INVICTUS

1. Sport has large potential of political power as same as music.
2. Mind of "never give up/invictus" always save our soul and lead our hope to the future.
3. Real we live could be changed by political leader (including a little bit of cinycism).


[Invictus by William Ernest Henley]

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

追記：マストで観るべきとは思わなかった。勝つことと負けることがスポーツの宿命で、それにはさほど興味が湧かなかったからだ。ただ、モーガンフリーマンが上記の詩を朗読するのを聞きたい、ストーリーの背景を踏まえて、という人にとっては、やはりマストスィーと言わざるを得ない。
