I believe it is:
Quote:

"For of us is required a blind trust, and a hope without assurance, knowing not what lies before us in a little while. And yet we also love the earth, and would not lose it."
I looked, and I have no idea who said it - would you mind imparting this bit of knowledge? ;)

Eruanna 01-28-2005 03:42 PM

Well done Firefoot. I too had got the quote but couldn't place it. Hopefully Guinevere will be along to enlighten us soon :cool:

Guinevere 01-28-2005 03:46 PM

You got the quote perfectly right, Firefoot, even if you didn't recognize it! :)

It is from the Akallabęth; the Númenóreans speaking to the messengers of Manwë.

Firefoot 01-28-2005 04:13 PM

And I looked there, too!

Oh well. New quote:
