“There, peeping among the cloud-wrack above a dark tor high up in the mountains, Sam saw a white star twinkle for a while. The beauty of it smote his heart, as he looked up out of the forsaken land, and hope returned to him. For like a shaft, clear and cold, the thought pierced him that in the end the Shadow was only a small and passing thing: there was a light and high beauty for ever beyond its reach.” — J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King
"A day may come when the courage of men fails, when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship, but it is not this day."
"I have lived most of my life surrounded by my enemies, I will be grateful to die among my friends."
"I am Aragon son of Arathorn; and if by life or death I can save you, I will."
