Regarding the Ithryn Luin (Blue Wizards)
Quote:
I really do not know anything clearly about the other two - since they do not concern the history of the N.W. [of Middle-Earth] I think that they went as emissaries to distant regions, East and South, far out of Númenórean range: missionaries to 'enemy-occupied' lands, as it were. What success they had I do not know; but i fear that they failed, as Saruman did, though doubtless in different ways; and I suspect that they were founders or beginners of secret cults and 'magic' traditions that outlasted the fall of Sauron.
Letter 211 of the Letters of J.R.R. Tolkien

I always thought that Billy Graham and David Copperfield were odd!!
