    J.R.R. Tolkien
    “All that is gold does not glitter,
    Not all those who wander are lost;
    The old that is strong does not wither,
    Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

    From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
    A light from the shadows shall spring;
    Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
    The crownless again shall be king.”
    ― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

    Benjamin Alire Sáenz

    If I switched the letter, my name was Air.

    I could be something and nothing at the same time. I could be necessary and also invisible. Everyone would need me and no one would be able to see me.”
