    J.R.R. Tolkien
    “Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
    Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
    Nine for Mortal Men, doomed to die,
    One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
    In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
    One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
    One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them.
    In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.”

    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

    Rudyard Kipling
    “I will remember what I was, I am sick of rope and chains -
    I will remember my old strength and all my forest affairs.
    I will not sell my back to man for a bundle of sugar cane;
    I will go out to my own kind, and the wood-folk in their lairs.
    I will go out until the day, until the morning break -
    Out to the wind's untainted kiss, the water's clean caress;
    I will forget my ankle-ring and snap my picket stake.
    I will revisit my lost love and playmates masterless!”
    ― Rudyard Kipling, The Jungle Books
