“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

“A woman is like a tea bag; you never know how strong it is until it's in hot water.”

“I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.”
