“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

“Such a mysterious business, motherhood. How brave a woman must be to embark on it.”
― M. L. Stedman, La luce sugli oceani

“History is that which is agreed upon by mutual consent.”
― ML Stedman, The Light Between Oceans

“Sometimes, you're the one who strikes it lucky. Sometimes, it's the other poor bastard who's left with the short straw, and you just have to shut up and get on with it.”
― M.L. Stedman, The Light Between Oceans
