J. R. R. Tolkien
I will take the Ring, he said, though I do not know the way.
J. R. R. Tolkien
False hopes are more dangerous than fears.
J. R. R. Tolkien
He knew that all the hazards and perils were now drawing together to a point: the next day would be a day of doom, the day of final effort or disaster, the last gasp.

J. R. R. Tolkien
Sorry! I don't want any adventures, thank you. Not Today. Good morning! But please come to tea -any time you like! Why not tomorrow? Good bye!
J. R. R. Tolkien
No onslaught more fierce was ever seen in the savage world of beasts, where some desperate small creature armed with little teeth, alone, will spring upon a tower of horn and hide that stands above its fallen mate.
J. R. R. Tolkien
Above all shadows rides the sun.
J. R. R. Tolkien
I don't deny it, said Frodo, looking at Sam, who was now grinning. I don't deny it, but I'll never believe you are sleeping again, whether you snore or not. I shall kick you hard to make sure.
J. R. R. Tolkien
I want to be a healer, and love all things that grow and are not barren.
J. R. R. Tolkien
Don't leave me here alone! It's your Sam calling. Don't go where I can't follow! Wake up, Mr. Frodo!
