    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

    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.”

    “ჭეშმარიტი სიყვარული ტანჯვაა, განუწყვეტელი მსხვერპლშეწირვაა და ეს განუწყვეტელი მსხვერპლშეწირვა და ტანჯვა არაფრით არ ნაზღაურდება. უფრო სწორად, ყველაზე დიდი საზღაური ის არის, ამგვარი ტანჯვის განცდისა და ამგვარი მსხვერპლის გაღების უფლება რომ მოგეცა.”

    Christopher Nolan
    “ARTHUR: It'd have to be a 747.
    COBB: Why?
    ARTHUR: On a 747 the pilots are up above, first class is in the nose so nobody walks through the cabin. We'd have to buy out the whole cabin, and the first class flight attendant-
    SAITO: We bought the airline.
    Everyone turns to Saito.
    SAITO: It seemed... neater.”

    J.R.R. Tolkien
    “Under the Mountain dark and tall
    The King has come unto his hall!
    His foe is dead,
    the Worm of Dread,
    And ever so his foes shall fall.

    The sword is sharp, the spear is long,
    The arrow swift, the Gate is strong;
    The heart is bold that looks on gold;
    The dwarves no more shall suffer wrong.

    The dwarves of yore made mighty spells,
    While hammers fells like ringing bells
    In places deep, where dark things sleep,
    In hollow halls beneath the fells.

    -from The Hobbit (Dwarves Battle Song)”

    Frank Herbert
    “I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”
