"Such is oft the course of deeds that move the wheels of the world: small hands do them because they must, while the eyes of the great are elsewhere."
Elrond
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Ring Goes South, The Fellowship of the Ring
"The world is indeed full of peril, and in it there are many dark places; but still there is much that is fair, and though in all lands love is now mingled with grief, it grows perhaps the greater."
Haldir
J.R.R. Tolkien, Lothlórien, The Fellowship of the Ring
