Official Tolkien Appreciation
  • Tall ships and tall kings
    Three times three.

    Over the flowing sea?
    Seven stars and seven stones
    And one white tree.

Imladris- Rivendell 

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. Evil things did not come into that valley.
