Celebrimbor: "Pretty rings..." Dwarves: "Pretty rings..." Men: "Pretty rings..." Sauron: "Mine's better." "Ah, how ironic, the addictive qualities of Sauron’s master weapon led to its own destruction. Which just goes to show, kids - if you want two small and noble souls to succeed on a mission of dire importance... send an evil-minded beggar with them too." - Gandalf's Diaries, final par, by Ufthak.

****************************************** "My friend,” said Gandalf, “you had horses, and deeds of arms, and the free fields; but she, born in the body of a maid, had a spirit and courage at least the match of yours. Yet she was doomed to wait upon an old man, whom she loved as a father, and watch him falling into a mean dishonoured dotage; and her part seemed to her more ignoble than that of the staff he leaned on. “Think you that Wormtongue had poison only for Théoden's ears? ‘Dotard! What is the house of Eorl but a thatched barn where brigands drink in the reek, and their brats roll on the floor among their dogs?’ Have you not heard those words before? Saruman spoke them, the teacher of Wormtongue. Though I do not doubt that Wormtongue at home wrapped their meaning in terms more cunning. My lord, if your sister's love for you, and her will still bent to her duty, had not restrained her lips; you might have heard even such things as these escape them. But who knows what she spoke to the darkness, alone, in the bitter watches of the night, when all her life seemed shrinking, and the walls of her bower closing in about her, a hutch to trammel some wild thing in?” “I'm gonna wash Rohan right outa my hair, I'm gonna wash Rohan right outa my hair, I'm gonna wash Rohan right outa my hair, And I’ll be on my way! “If a land don't understand you, No matter how many regimes, Saddle up, do not wait, Don’t waste time at the weapontake. Muster out of that roll call. Ride Windfola out to your dreams! “If the house of Eorl is nothing more, Than a barn where brigands drink, Their brats and dogs roll on the floor, Then you know what the door is for, Muster out of that roll call, Wash Rohan into the sink! “I'm gonna wash Rohan right outa my hair, I'm gonna wash Rohan right outa my hair, I'm gonna wash Rohan right outa my hair, And I’ll be on my way!" -Rodgers and Hammerstein, The Lord of the Rings
