LOTR

‎"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 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."


I love this quote, I almost quoted part of it in a talk in church once- true story. I am madly obsessed with The Lord of the Rings and J.R.R. Tolkien, and also throw Peter Jackson in there for putting it together on film. 
I am soooo excited for The Hobbit to hit theaters next month!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyway, I find these words are deep, meaningful, and beautiful. This is easily one of my favorite quotes of all time. 
I wander, but I am not lost; for I am just strengthening my roots.



One more LOTR quote... for the road, or good measure, or just because...

"I wish none of this had happened." 
"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 to us."
-Frodo and Gandalf, The Fellowship of the Ring
