an addendum---
both boromir and faramir were excellent warriors, but as "statesmen" or leaders faramir seemed a man of larger, non-egocentric convictions while boromir seemed to be of a more insular mindset, unable to easily see anything beyond the good of gondor. faramir understood and therefore could sense important circumstances in seemingly unimportant ones, e.g., what was afoot with frodo. and in this sense he was truly a full-blooded, far-seeing, global numenorean, the kind needed to lead a great nation.
