“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

“We should live our lives as though Christ was coming this afternoon.”
― Jimmy Carter

“We bear the consequences for what we have done to ourselves, and for the sin that rules this world. Jesus forgave the thief, but he didn't take him down off the cross.”
― Francine Rivers, A Voice in the Wind

“In this hour, I do not believe that any darkness will endure.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King
