Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement. For even the very wise cannot see all ends.
I realize that is many people’s choice, but it has always been my favorite.
Thank you everyone for participating and submitting all your brilliant Tolkien quotes. I posted the winner on Twitter and facebook this morning.
