Invictus

Fascinating. Henley's Invictus, by the man who was the model for Long John Silver;

being the last words of Timothy McVeigh.

I shudder to think what he would have made of Vita Lampada.

I have screwed up my face in horror.

Invictus is the movie, also, with Freeman as Mandela and Damon as the rugby captain of South Africa.

Of course Mandela didn't actually give THAT poem. It was another one, which had an inspirational effect.
