It is sweet and hororable (right) to die for one's country.
'Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori' is a line from the Roman lyrical poet Horace. It is still quoted today, particularly by military leaders, and often still quoted in the Latin original.
The line can be rendered in English as "it is sweet and appropriate to die for your country", "it is sweet and fitting to die for the fatherland", etc.
During the First World War, British poet Wilfred Owen wrote a poem titled Dulce Et Decorum Est in which the phrase was described as "the old lie".

In my eyes there is no Such thing. To "master" anything is to put A limit in your mind That there is no Need for improvement. To have "mastered" something is to have perfected it and perfection doesnt Exist. There is always A need for improvement and if you believe this Whole heartedly then your potential, involving anything, is limitless.
