One would never undertake such a thing if one were not driven by some demon whom one can neither resist nor understand.<br /> George Orwell

"All that is gold does not glitter,<br /> Not all those who wander are lost;<br /> The old that is strong does not wither,<br /> Deep roots are not reached by the frost.<br /> From the ashes a fire shall be woken,<br /> A light from the shadows shall spring;<br /> Renewed shall be blade that was broken,<br /> The crownless again shall be king.”<br /> ― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring
