“… there is still much that is fair…”

More beautiful thoughts from Tolkien.

“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.”

- J.R.R. Tolkien

These thoughts hold with the whole “hard times make strong men” theory, somewhat, I’d say. Tolkien has such an eloquent way of putting it.
