“Tourist: “How high do you have to get before the deer turn into elk?” Ranger: “High on what?” Tourist: “I mean elevation.” Ranger:  “What?” Tourist:  “At what elevation will a deer become an elk?”
― Carolyn Jourdan, Bear Bloopers: True Stories from the Great Smoky Mountains National Park: Smokies Wildlife Ranger Book 4

“Tourist: “What time do they let the bears out?” Ranger: “They’re out all the time.” Tourist: “What do you mean?”
― Carolyn Jourdan, Bear Bloopers: True Stories from the Great Smoky Mountains National Park: Smokies Wildlife Ranger Book 4

“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

“Sometimes you have to give up the easy thing and do the right one,”
― Charles Lambert, The Children's Home
