d element of surprise

Many folk like to know beforehand what is to be set on the table; but those who have laboured to prepare the feast like to keep their secret; for wonder makes the words of praise louder

I will be a healer

I will be a healer, and love all things that grow and are not barren.

Put this engraving on my Tombstone

Though here at journey's end I lie
in darkness buried deep,
beyond all towers strong and high,
beyond all mountains steep,
above all shadows rides the Sun
and Stars for ever dwell:
I will not say the Day is done,
nor bid the Stars farewell.

do ur duty

'Follow what may, great deeds are not lessened in worth,'
'Great deed was the riding of the Paths of the Dead, and great it shall remain, though none be left in the WORLD to sing of it in the days that are to come.'

Need brooks no delay, yet late is better than never.

Doomsday is approaching...

Tomorrow will be certain to bring worse than today, for many days to come. And there is nothing more that I can do to help it. The board is set, and the pieces are moving.

'I am no warrior at all and dislike any thought of battle; but waiting on the edge of one that I can't escape is worst of all."

WAKE UP!!!

If you have walked all these days with closed ears and mind asleep, wake up now!

'The mightiest man may be slain by one arrow"

Time is important

'Time does not tarry ever but change and growth is not in all things and places alike."

"Rich are the hours, though short they seem."

Believe in urself & ur friends as well...

Even now there is hope left. I will not give you counsel, saying do this, or do that. For not in doing or contriving, nor in choosing between this course and another, can I avail; but only in knowing what was and is, and in part also what shall be. But this I will say to you: your Quest stands upon the edge of a knife. Stray but a little and it will fail, to the ruin of all. Yet hope remains while all the Company is true.

Love is everywhere

The world is indeed full of peril, and in it there are many dark places; but still there is much that is fair, and though in all lands love is now mingled with grief, it grows perhaps the greater.

Destiny is not ours 2 choose

However it may prove, one must tread the path that need chooses!

"Faithless is he that says farewell when the road darkens"

The road must be trod, but it will be very hard. And neither strength nor wisdom will carry us far upon it. This quest may be attempted by the weak with as much hope as the strong. Yet such is oft 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.

Study ur enemy

It is perilous to study too deeply the arts of the Enemy, for good or for ill. But such falls and betrayals, alas, have happened before.

My anger is dangerous

They drew away from me, for they felt the coming of my anger and they dared not face it while the Sun was in the sky.

He that breaks a thing to find out what it is has left the path of wisdom.

Time will Shine

There are many powers in the world, for good or for evil. Some are greater than I am. Against some I have not yet been measured. But my time is coming.

All dat glitters is not gold

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.

Trust me always

You can trust me to stick to you through thick and thin — to the bitter end.
And you can trust me to keep any secret of yours — closer than you keep it yourself.
But you cannot trust me to let you face trouble alone, and go off without a word.

Thought 4 d day

The wide world is all about you: you can fence yourselves in, but you cannot for ever fence it out.

Avail d opportunities in life

Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.

Going 2 work & back...

Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We'll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And then to bed! And then to bed!

I m against capital punishment

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.

Black Speech

Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with weary feet,
Until it joins some larger way,
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say
