J.R.R. Tolkien

“It is also reflected in the commitment to the belief that everything, even Morgoth himself, was as created good, But that due to the free will possessed by every creature with a rational mind, they could fall: as one Vala and various Maiar, and Men corporately, did; and even Manwë, had he asserted his own will and judgement over Eru’s, would likewise have fallen.”
