“I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.
"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

“And forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair”

“I thought the most beautiful thing in the world must be shadow, the million moving shapes and cul-de-sacs of shadow.

― Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar
