John Ronald Reuel Tolkien better known as J. R. R. Tolkien famous for his fantasy books The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings and The Silmarillion.Here are some of his quotes
Deep roots are not reached by frost.
I warn you, if you bore me, I shall take my revenge.
What do you mean? Do you wish me a good morning, or mean that it is a good morning whether I want it or not; or that you feel good on this morning; or that it is a morning to be good on?
Courage is found in unlikely places.
Still round the corner there may wait, A new road or a secret gate.
It needs but one foe to breed a war, and those who have not swords can still die upon them.
One Ring to rule them all,
One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all
and in the darkness bind them.
J. R. R. Tolkien quote in The Lord of the Rings
All that is gold does not glitter; not all those that wander are lost.
Do not meddle in the affairs of wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger.
You can only come to the morning through the shadows.
All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.
The wise speak only of what they know.
The Hobbits are just rustic English people, made small in size because it reflects the generally small reach of their imagination.
It is the job that is never started that takes longest to finish.
Handsome is as handsome does.
There is nothing like looking, if you want to find something. You certainly usually find something, if you look, but it is not always quite the something you were after.
Do not meddle in the affairs of wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger.
I have no help to send, therefore I must go myself.
His house was perfect, whether you liked food, or sleep, or work, or story-telling, or singing, or just sitting and thinking, best, or a pleasant mixture of them all.
J. R. R. Tolkien quote in The Hobbit
I do not love the bright sword for it’s sharpness, nor the arrow for it’s swiftness, nor the warrior for his glory. I love only that which they defend.
The burned hand teaches best.
