#Invictus by #WilliamErnestHenley

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.

#Invictus by #WilliamErnestHenley

In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

#Invictus by #WilliamErnestHenley

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.

Here is an expert analysis of the military mistakes made at Winterfell, by me, who has no military experience but has seen a lot of movies 1/
Cavalry: The Dothraki were wasted on a futile charge. Everybody knows the dead swarm their opponents, a frontal charge had no chance. This misuse is likely a result of the racism inherent in the system and the need of the writers to get rid of Dany’s main army for Cersei 2/
Cavalry 2: They should have kept the Dothraki in reserve until the enemy had committed their main force and then done a flanking charge. Source: This worked twice in Lord of the Rings and it was awesome. 3/
