J.R.R. Tolkien
“And then her heart changed, or at least she understood it; and the winter passed, and the sun shone upon her.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King

J.R.R. Tolkien
“I want to be a healer, and love all things that grow and are not barren.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings

J.R.R. Tolkien
“Begone, foul dwimmerlaik, lord of carrion! Leave the dead in peace!"

A cold voice answered: 'Come not between the Nazg没l and his prey! Or he will not slay thee in thy turn. He will bear thee away to the houses of lamentation, beyond all darkness, where thy flesh shall be devoured, and thy shrivelled mind be left naked to the Lidless Eye."

A sword rang as it was drawn. "Do what you will; but I will hinder it, if I may."

"Hinder me? Thou fool. No living man may hinder me!"

Then Merry heard of all sounds in that hour the strangest. It seemed that Dernhelm laughed, and the clear voice was like the ring of steel. "But no living man am I!”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings

J.R.R. Tolkien
“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?”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King

J.R.R. Tolkien
“My friend, you had horses, and deed of arms, and the free fields; but she, being 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.
-Gandalf to Eomer, of Eowyn”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King

J.R.R. Tolkien
“Thus Aragorn for the first time in the full light of day beheld 脡辞飞测苍, Lady of Rohan, and thought her fair, fair and cold, like a morning of pale spring that is not yet come to womanhood. And she was now suddenly aware of him: tall heir of kings, wise with many winters, greycloaked, hiding a power that yet she felt. For a moment still as stone she stood, then turning swiftly she was gone.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Two Towers

J.R.R. Tolkien
“Hinder me? Thou fool. No living man may hinder me!"
Then Merry heard in all sounds of the hour the strangest. It seemed that Dernhelm laughed, and the clear voice was like the ring of steel.
"But no living man am I! You are looking upon a woman. Eowyn am I, Eomund's daughter. You stand between me and my lord and kin. Begone, if you be not deathless! For living or dark undead, I will smite you, if you touch him."
The winged creature screamed at her, but then the Ringwraith was silent, as if in sudden doubt. Very amazement for a moment conquered Merry's fear. He opened his eyes and the blackness was lifted from them. There some paces from him sat the great beast, and all seemed dark about it, and above it loomed the Nazgul Lord like a shadow of despair. A little to the left facing them stood whom he had called Dernhelm. But the helm of her secrecy had fallen from her, and and her bright hair, released from its bonds, gleamed with pale gold upon her shoulders. Her eyes grey as the sea were hard and fell, and yet tears gleamed in them. A sword was in her hand, and she raised her shield against the horror of her enemy's eyes.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King

J.R.R. Tolkien
“What do you fear, lady?' he asked.

'A cage,' she said.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King

J.R.R. Tolkien
“For she is a fair maiden, fairest lady of a house of queens. And yet I know not how I should speak of her. When I first looked on her and perceived her unhappiness, it seemed to me that I saw a white flower standing straight and proud, shapely as a lily, and yet knew that it was hard, as if wrought by elf-wrights out of steel. Or was it, maybe, a frost that had turned its sap to ice, and so it stood, bitter-sweet, still fair to see, but stricken, soon to fall and die?
- Aragorn about 脡辞飞测苍”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King

J.R.R. Tolkien
“The woman turned and went slowly into the house. As she passed the doors she turned and looked back. Grave and thoughtful was her glance, as she looked on the king with cool pity in here eyes. Very fair was her face, and her long hair was like a river of gold. Slender and tall she was in her white robe girt with silver; but strong she seemed and stern as steel, a daughter of kings.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Two Towers

J.R.R. Tolkien
“It was an evil doom that set her in his path. For she is a fair maiden, fairest lady of a house of queens. And yet I know not how I should speak of her. When I first looked on her and perceived her unhappiness, it seemed to me that I saw a white flower standing straight and proud, shapely as a lily and yet knew that it was hard, as if wrought by elf-wrights out of steel.

“Alas, not me, lord!" she said. "Shadow lies on me still. Look not to me for healing! I am a shieldmaiden and my hand is ungentle.”

“I stand in Minas Anor, the Tower of the Sun; and behold! the Shadow has departed! I will be a Shieldmaiden no longer, nor vie with the great Riders, nor take joy only in the songs of slaying. I will be a healer, and love all things that grow and are not barren.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King

J.R.R. Tolkien
“As she stood before Aragorn she paused suddenly and looked upon him, and her eyes were shining. And he looked down upon her fair face and smiled; but as he took the cup, his hand met hers, and he knew that she trembled at the touch.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Two Towers

“Then she fell on her knees, saying: 'I beg thee!'
'Nay, lady,' he said, and taking her by the hand he raised her. The he kissed her hand, and sprang into the saddle, and rode away, and did not look back; and only those who knew him well and were near to him saw the pain that he bore.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King

J.R.R. Tolkien
“And she answered: 'All your words are but to say: you are a woman, and your part is in the house. But when the men have died in battle and honour, you leave to be burned in the house, for the men will need it no more. But I am of the House of Eorl and not a serving-woman. I can ride and wield blade, and I do not fear either pain or death.'

'What do you fear, lady?' he asked.

'A cage,' she said.”

“It needs but one foe to breed a war, not two, Master Warden,' answered 脡辞飞测苍. 'And those who have not swords can still die upon them.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings

Steve Bivans
“After ripping through The Hobbit, I read The Lord of the Rings, and the darkness of that story enveloped me in a way that is impossible to explain. I was THERE, in a very real sense. The fear was palpable in the presence of the black-cloaked Ringwraiths, and I could taste the sulfurous fumes of Mt. Doom. I could smell the sweat of horses and hot leather and hear the clash of battle as I rode with the Rohan on the fields of the Pelennor. I bled and died with the sun-king, Theoden. I rose again with Eowyn鈥檚 defiance of the Witch King. I soared with the Eagles as they swept the broken and bloody body of Frodo and his companion Samwise the Brave from the smoking crags of the fiery mountain. There has never been such a story, and I don鈥檛 think there ever shall be again.”

J.R.R. Tolkien
“驴A qu茅 le tem茅is, Se帽ora?-le pregunt贸 Aragorn.
-A una jaula. A vivir encerrada detr谩s de barrotes, hasta que la costumbre y la vejez acepten el cautiverio, y la posibilidad y a煤n el deseo de llevar a cabo grandes haza帽as se hayan perdido para siempre.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King

“There goes a lord who tamed a wild shieldmaiden of the North!”

J.R.R. Tolkien
“隆Es que no soy ningun hombre viviente! Lo que tus ojos ven es una mujer. Soy 脡辞飞测苍 hija de Eomund. Pretendes impedir que me acerque a mi se帽or y pariente. 隆Vete de aqui si no eres una criatura inmortal! Porque vivo o espectro oscuro, te traspasare con mi espada si lo tocas!”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King

J.R.R. Tolkien
“you do not go, because only your brother called for you, and to look on the Lord Aragorn, Elendil's heir, in his triumph would now bring you no joy. Or because I do not go, and you desire still to be near me. And maybe for both these reasons, and you yourself cannot choose between them. 脡辞飞测苍, do you not love me, or will you not?'
'I wished to be loved by another,' she answered, 'But I desire no man's pity.'
'That I know,' he said. 'You desired to have the love of the Lord Aragorn. Because he was high and puissant, and you wished to have renown and glory and to be lifted far above the mean things that crawl on the earth. And as a great captain may to a young soldier he seemed to you admirable. For so he is, a lord among men, the greatest that now is. But when he gave you only understanding and pity, then you desired to have nothing, unless a brave death in battle. Look at me, 脡辞飞测苍!'
And 脡辞飞测苍 looked at Faramir long and steadily; and Faramir said: 'Do not scorn pity that is the gift of a gentle heart, 脡辞飞测苍! But I do not offer you my pity, For you are a lady high and valiant and have yourself won renown that shall not be forgotten; and you are a lady beautiful, I deem, beyond even the words of the Elven-tongue to tell. And I love you. Once I pitied your sorrow. But now, were you sorrowless, without fear or any lack, were you the blissful Queen of Gondor, still I would love you. 脡辞飞测苍 do you not love me?'
Then the heart of 脡辞飞测苍 changed, or else at last she understood it. And suddenly her winter passed, and the sun shone on her.
'I stand in Minas Anor, the Tower of the Sun,' she said; 'and behold! the Shadow has departed! I will be a sheildmaiden no longer, nor vie with the great Riders, nor take joy only in the songs of slaying. I will be a healer, and love all things that grow and are not barren.' And again she looked at Faramir. 'No longer do I desire to be a queen,' she said.
Then Faramir laughed merrily. 'That is well,' he said; 'for I am not a king. Yet I will wed with the White Lady of Rohan, if it be her will. And if she will, then let us cross the River and in happier days let us dwell in fair Ithilien and there make a garden. All things will grow with joy there, if the White Lady comes.”

“Then, whether Aragorn had indeed some forgotten power of Westernesse, or
whether it was but his words of the Lady 脡辞飞测苍 that wrought on them, as the sweet
influence of the herb stole about the chamber it seemed to those who stood by that a
keen wind blew through the window, and it bore no scent, but was an air wholly fresh
and clean and young, as if it had not before been breathed by any living thing and came
new-made from snowy mountains high beneath a dome of stars, or from shores of
silver far away washed by seas of foam. 'Awake, 脡辞飞测苍, Lady of Rohan!' said Aragorn
again, and he took her right hand in his and felt it warm with life returning.”

“..for long years we healers have only sought to patch the rents made by the men of swords. Though we should still have enough to do without them: the world is full enough of hurts and mischances without wars to multiply them. ' 'It needs but one foe to breed a war, not two, Master Warden,' answered 脡辞飞测苍.”

“E in quel momento le loro mani s'incontrarono e si strinsero, ma essi non lo sapevano. E continuavano ad attendere qualcosa. Poi a un tratto parve loro che sopra le creste dei monti lontani s'innalzasse un'altra imponente montagna di tenebre, giganteggiando come un'ombra che volesse inondare il mondo, puntellata di bagliori; poi un tremito percorse la terra e le mura della Citt脿 vibrarono. Un rumore simile a un sospiro si lev貌 dalle campagne circostanti, e i loro cuori ricominciarono improvvisamente a battere.
"Mi ricorda N煤menor", disse Faramir, e si stup矛 di udirsi parlare.
"N煤menor?", ripet茅 脡辞飞测苍.
"S矛", disse Faramir, "la terra dell'Ovesturia che s'inabiss貌, e la grande ombra oscura che sommerse tutte le terre verdi e le colline e che avanzava, oscurit脿 inesorabile. La sogno sovente".
"Allora credi che l'Oscurit脿 stia arrivando?", disse 脡辞飞测苍. "L'Oscurit脿 Inesorabile?". E improvvisamente si strinse a lui.
"No", disse Faramir guardandola in viso. "Era soltanto un'immagine. Non so che cosa stia accadendo. Ragionando a mente lucida direi che una grande catastrofe 猫 avvenuta, e che ci troviamo alla fine dei giorni. Ma il cuore mi smentisce, e le mie membra sono leggere, e sono invaso da una speranza e da una gioia che la ragione non pu貌 negare. 脡辞飞测苍, 脡辞飞测苍, Bianca Dama di Rohan, in questa ora io non credo che alcuna oscurit脿 possa durare!". E, chinatosi, le baci貌 la fronte.
E rimasero cos矛 sulle mura di Gondor, mentre un grande vento si levava e soffiava fra i loro capelli, biondi e corvini, mescolandoli nell'aria. E l'Ombra scomparve, e il Sole fu svelato, e la luce crebbe; e le acque dell'Anduin brillarono come argento, e in tutte le case della Citt脿 gli uomini cantavano, spinti da una gioia inspiegabile che traboccava dai loro cuori.”

“What do you fear, lady?" he asked.
"A cage," she said. "To stay behind bars, until use and old age accept them, and all chance of doing great deeds is gone beyond recall or desire.”
