    Alfred Tennyson
    “Now slides the silent meteor on, and leaves a shining furrow, as thy thoughts in me.

    Now folds the lily all her sweetness up,
    and slips into the bosom of the lake:
    So fold thyself, my dearest, thou, and slip into my bosom and be lost in me.”
    ― Alfred Lord Tennyson

    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
