"Invictus":

I am the master of my fate:

  I am the captain of my soul.

 This is the spirit which we should all have within us.

Crash

Crash is one of the best films I’ve seen in quite some time, probably the best since American Beauty. Crash takes the viewer in for a powerful look at racial stereotypes in contemporary America by putting the viewer in situations that don’t have clear-cut answers. The movie makes you question what you think you know about yourself by letting you identify with characters in the film and then pulling the rug out from underneath your preconceived notions.

    & nbsp;   &n bsp;   &nb sp; "So was it when my life began;

    & nbsp;   &n bsp;   &nb sp;  So is it, now I am a man;

    & nbsp;   &n bsp;   &nb sp;  So be it when I shall grow old."

The truth is that the language of praise and obloquy is quite
inappropriate.

In practice what happens is that parents notice that boys brought up
at home become mollycoddles, or prigs, or duffers, unable to take care
of themselves.  They see that boys should learn to rough it a little
and to mix with children of their own age.  This is natural enough.
When you have preached at and punished a boy until he is a moral
cripple, you are as much hampered by him as by a physical cripple; and
as you do not intend to have him on your hands all your life, and are
generally rather impatient for the day when he will earn his own
living and leave you to attend to yourself, you sooner or later begin
to talk to him about the need for self-reliance, learning to think,
and so forth, with the result that your victim, bewildered by your
inconsistency, concludes that there is no use trying to please you,
and falls into an attitude of sulky resentment.  Which is an
additional inducement to pack him off to school.
