Slight changes simply make a blur.
J. R. R. Tolkien
I have no help to send, therefore I must go myself.
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
If you want to know what cram is, I can only say that I don’t know the recipe but it is biscuitish, keeps good indefinitely, is supposed to be sustaining, and is certainly not entertaining, being in fact very uninteresting except as a chewing exercise.
J. R. R. Tolkien
Let him not vow to walk in the dark, who has not seen the nightfall.
J. R. R. Tolkien
Deeds will not be less valiant because they are unpraised.
J. R. R. Tolkien
please don't cook me, kind sirs! I am a good cook myself, and cook better than I cook, if you see what I mean.
J. R. R. Tolkien
Fire, fear, foes! Awake!
J. R. R. Tolkien
If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.
J. R. R. Tolkien
On their deathbed men will speak true, they say.
J. R. R. Tolkien
Don't put a lump of rock under my elbow again!
J. R. R. Tolkien
All have their worth and each contributes to the worth of the others.
J. R. R. Tolkien
All your words are but to say: you are a woman, and your part is in the house. But when the men have died in battle and honour, you have leave to be burned in the house, for the men will need it no more. But I am of the House of Erol and not a serving-woman. I can ride and wield blade, and I do not fear either pain or death.
J. R. R. Tolkien
I am in fact a hobbit (in all but size). I like gardens, trees and unmechanized farmlands I smoke a pipe, and like good plain food (unrefrigerated).
J. R. R. Tolkien
I will not say, do not weep, for not all tears are an evil.
J. R. R. Tolkien
I may be a burglar...but I'm an honest one, I hope, more or less.
J. R. R. Tolkien
No taste of food, no feel of water, no sound of wind, no memory of tree or grass or flower, no image of moon or star are left to me. I am naked in the dark, Sam, and there is no veil between me and the wheel of fire. I begin to see it even with my waking eyes, and all else fades.
J. R. R. Tolkien
Things will go as they will, and there is no need to hurry to meet them.
J. R. R. Tolkien
Evidently we look so much alike that your desire to make an incurable dent in my hat must be excused.
J. R. R. Tolkien
If you're going to have a complicated story you must work to a map otherwise you'll never make a map of it afterwards.
