falls drop by drop upon the heart
until, in our own despair, against our will,
comes wisdom through the awful grace of God.”

It was the moon and the sun.
And though I roam all over the world,
The spending of it’s never done.”

“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.”
― The Fellowship of the Ring
