“Farewell, O twice beloved! A Túrin Turambar turun ambartanen: master of doom by doom mastered! O happy to be dead!”

[Turin Turambar @izi30002]

"It is not our part to master all the tides of the world, but to do what is in us for the succour of those years wherein we are set, uprooting the evil in the fields that we know, so that those who live after may have clean earth to till."

[Turin Turambar @izi30002]

"Oft hope is born, when all is forlorn."

[Turin Turambar @izi30002]

"A grim morn, and a glad day, and a golden sunset!"

[Turin Turambar @izi30002]

"A time may come soon, when none will return. Then there will be need of valour without renown, for none shall remember the deeds that are done in the last defence of your homes. Yet the deeds will not be less valiant because they are unpraised."

[Turin Turambar @izi30002]

"The hasty stroke goes oft astray."

[Turin Turambar @izi30002]

"but I do not love the bright sword for its sharpness, nor the arrow for its swiftness, nor the warrior for his glory. I love only that which they defend:"

[Turin Turambar @izi30002]

"The treacherous are ever distrustful"

[Turin Turambar @izi30002]

"Yet dawn is ever the hope of men."

[Turin Turambar @izi30002]

"Faithful heart may have froward tongue."

[Turin Turambar @izi30002]

"There are some things that it is better to begin than to refuse, even though the end may be dark."

@FrogMcDog @QuetzalPhoenix "I will not say: do not weep; for not all tears are an evil."

[Turin Turambar @izi30002]

@FrogMcDog "Then Morgoth stretching out his long arm towards Dor-lomin cursed Hurin and Morwen and their offspring, saying: 'Behold! The shadow of my thought shall lie upon them wherever they go, and my hate shall pursue them to the ends of the world."

"If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world."

[Turin Turambar @izi30002]

@CarSighting "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."

[Turin Turambar @izi30002]

"But do not despise the lore that has come down from distant years; for oft it may chance that old wives keep in memory word of things that once were needful for the wise to know."

Love my Silmarillion-themed battleaxe from the folks at @BladesBattling...

“Last of all Hurin stood alone. Then he cast aside his shield, and wielded an axe two-handed; and it is sung that the axe smoked in the black blood of the troll-guard of Gothmog until it withered, and each time that he slew Hurin cried: 'Aure entuluva! Day shall come again!' Seventy times he uttered that cry; but they took him at last alive...”

[Turin Turambar @izi30002]

"Faithless is he that says farewell when the road darkens"

[Turin Turambar @izi30002]

"A man that flies from his fear may find that he has only taken a short cut to meet it."

[Yain @I_Am_Yain]

@HieronymusScott @LonesomeDoveCap Quite the opposite. The Fellowship was supposed to be stealthmaxxing their way to Mordor, but Glorfindel's balrogmogging power levels would have spiked Sauron's cortisol and blown the cover.

Glorfindel had to stay in Rivendell jestergooning while a normie halfmoid took his place
