Can circumvent or hinder or control
The firm resolve of a determined soul.
Gifts count for nothing; will alone is great;
All things give way before it, soon or late.
What obstacle can stay the mighty force
Of the sea-seeking river in its course,
Or cause the ascending orb of day to wait?
Each well-born soul must win what it deserves.
Let the fool prate of luck. The fortunate
Is he whose earnest purpose never swerves,
Whose slightest action or inaction serves
The one great aim. Why, even Death stands still,
And waits an hour sometimes for such a will.
Will by Ella Wheeler Wilcox (1859-1919)
의지가 강한 사람의 단호한 결심을
막거나 방해하거나 통제할 수 있는 수 있는
가능성이나 운명이나 숙명 따위는 없다.
