Re: GTKY - Quotes

  • This is one of my favorite book quotes (from Tolkien's Return of the King):

    “There, peeping among the cloud-wrack above a dark tor high up in the mountains, Sam saw a white star twinkle for a while. The beauty of it smote his heart, as he looked up out of the forsaken land, and hope returned to him. For like a shaft, clear and cold, the thought pierced him that in the end the Shadow was only a small and passing thing: there was light and high beauty for ever beyond its reach.”


    I also like this one from Tolstoy's Anna Karenina:

    “He stepped down, trying not to look long at her, as if she were the sun, yet he saw her, like the sun, even without looking.”

    "For there is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so." - William Shakespeare, Hamlet
