    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

    “song of elli (old age)

    "What is plucked will grow again,
    What is slain lives on,
    What is stolen will remain
    What is gone is gone...
    What is sea-born dies on land,
    Soft is trod upon.
    What is given burns the hand -
    What is gone is gone...
    Here is there, and high is low;
    All may be undone.
    What is true, no two men know -
    What is gone is gone...
    Who has choices need not choose.
    We must, who have none.
    We can love but what we lose -
    What is gone is gone.”
    Peter S. Beagle, The Last Unicorn
