“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

“Is it fair to have given us the memory of what was and the desire of what could be when we must suffer what is?”

“If there's a book that you want to read, but it hasn't been written yet, then you must write it.”
