J. R. R. Tolkien

I wish life was not so short, he thought. languages take such a time, and so do all the things one wants to know about.

Faithless is he that says farewell when the road darkens.

Courage is found in unlikely places.

Do not meddle in the affairs of wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger.
