“I hold a beast, an angel and a madman in me,

and my enquiry is as to their working,

and my problem is their subjugation and victory,

downthrow and upheaval, and my effort is their self-expression.”

Dylan Thomas

“Do not be too eager to deal out death in judgment. Even the very wise can not see all ends. My heart tells me that Gollum has some part to play yet, for good or ill…before this is over.”

“Every man’s life ends the same way. It is only the details of how he lived and how he died that distinguish one man from another.”

“Sir,’ said I, `or Madam, truly your forgiveness I implore;

But the fact is I was napping,

and so gently you came rapping,

And so faintly you came tapping,

tapping at my chamber door,

That I scarce was sure I heard you”

Poe
