"Memory is a double-edged sword, Uthas. It can keep you strong through dark times, but it can also cripple you, keep you locked in a moment that no longer exists."
Quotes by John Gwynn
"To my thinking, though, it's what happens before death that's important. All of us die. How many really live?"
"It will be a dark day, a bloody day, a proud day, for this is the day of our wrath."
"We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars."
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo. "So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."
"By the pricking of my thumbs, Something wicked this way comes."
"Never violate a woman, nor harm a child. Do not lie, cheat or steal. These things are for lesser men. Protect the weak against the evil strong. And never allow thoughts of gain to lead you into the persuit of evil."
