Where these lines come from
True “I am the master of my fate, the captain of my soul.” The closing lines of W. E. Henley’s poem “Invictus”, dated 1875: “I am the master of my fate: / I am the captain of my soul.” Text
True “Fortune favours the bold.” Virgil, Aeneid 10.284, audentis Fortuna iuvat, “Fortune helps the daring”. In the poem it is spoken by Turnus, the enemy of Aeneas, rallying his men; by the end of the poem Aeneas has killed him. The proverb is older than Virgil: Terence has fortis fortuna adiuvat in Phormio (161 BC). Aeneid 10 · Phormio
