J. R. R. Tolkien
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.

What have I got in my pocket? he said aloud. He was talking to himself, but Gollum thought it was a riddle, and he was frightfully upset. Not fair! not fair! he hissed. It isn't fair, my precious, is it, to ask us what it's got in it's nassty little pocketsess?
J. R. R. Tolkien
Farewell! O Gandalf! May you ever appear where you are most needed and least expected!
J. R. R. Tolkien
O! Where are you going With beards all a-wagging? No knowing, no knowing What brings Mister Baggins, And Balin and Dwalin down into the valley in June ha! ha!
J. R. R. Tolkien
The one small garden of a free gardener was all his need and due, not a garden swollen to a realm his own hands to use, not the hands of others to command.
J. R. R. Tolkien
Never laugh at live dragons.
J. R. R. Tolkien
Such is of the course of deeds that move the wheels of the world: small hands do them because they must, while the eyes of the great are elsewhere.
