Gems from the 'Lesser Works' of JRRT

But the quotes forum is for quotes games my dear lindil. This wouldn't really be appropriate in there. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

The only two of those I have are Farmer Giles and Smith of Wooton Major, but this line did strike me as being quite wonderful:

At the sweet sound the candels flickered and then for a moment shone with a white light

I love this quote from Smith of Wooton Major simply from the imagery and the idea that it conveys. The sharp ringing of the bell affects the candle, you can just imagine how incredibly wonderful that sound must have been. (I'm a softy for music)
