Destiny waits alike for the free man as well as for him enslaved by another's might.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Man is supposed to be the maker of his destiny. It is only partly true. He can make his destiny, only in so far as he is allowed by the Great Power.
The free man is he who does not fear to go to the end of his thought.
Men do not shape destiny, Destiny produces the man for the hour.
Who then is free? The wise man who can command himself.
Man is free whenever he produces or manifests God, and through this he becomes immortal.
He that is kind is free, though he is a slave; he that is evil is a slave, though he be a king.
Destiny is no matter of chance. It is a matter of choice. It is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved.
And when man faces destiny, destiny ends and man comes into his own.
Man is free at the moment he wishes to be.
The destiny of man is in his own soul.
