    Wayne Thomas Batson
    “There are passages and doors
    And Realms that lie unseen.
    There are Roads both wide and narrow
    And no avenue between.
    Doors Remain closed for those
    Who in sad vanity yet hide.
    Yet when Belief is chosen,
    The key appears inside.
    What is lived now will soon pass,
    And what is not will come to Be.
    The Door Within must open,
    For one to truly see.
    Do you see?
    Believe and enter.”

    J.R.R. Tolkien

    J.R.R. Tolkien
    “All that is gold does not glitter,
    Not all those who wander are lost;
    The old that is strong does not wither,
    Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

    From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
    A light from the shadows shall spring;
    Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
    The crownless again shall be king.”
    ― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring
