Songs we have that tell of these things, but we are forgetting them, teaching them only to children, as a careless custom. And now the songs have come down among us out of the strange places, and walk visible under the Sun."

Theoden King, musing about Ents.

Guinevere 07-30-2014 02:35 PM

That's it, Tuor! :)

So shall it be! Dear-bought those songs shall
be accounted, and yet shall be well-bought. For
the price could be no other. Thus even as Eru spoke
to us shall beauty not before conceived be brought
into Eä, and evil yet be good to have been.

Manwë, on hearing the reply of Fëanor to his heralds.

Tuor in Gondolin 08-06-2014 11:37 AM

That's it. Your turn. Btw, the rest of the quote shows
Middle Earth is definitely not Manichean:
Quote:

"So shall it be! Dear-bought those songs shall
be accounted, and yet shall be well-bought. For
the price could be no other. Thus even as Eru spoke
to us shall beauty not before conceived be brought
into Eä, and evil yet be good to have been."

But Mandos said: "And yet remain evil. To me shall
Feanor soon come."

Eruhen 08-06-2014 10:15 PM

It's been a while since I've done this, so forgive me if it's too easy.

Sorry for the delay, folks. Had a spot of bother with the car yesterday, and have been dealing with the insurance company.

"Yet also I should be sad," said Théoden. "For however the fortune of war shall go, may it not so end that much that was fair and wonderful shall pass for ever out of Middle-earth?"
