J.R.R. Tolkien

The last person to call me 'Master' was a hobbit, and he was quite wrong.

It is not the strength of the body that counts, but the strength of the spirit.

I am not a hero. I am a hobbit.

Gandalf! If you don't come back, I'm going to have to do something about this. And I don't want to.

Never laugh at live dragons, Bilbo you fool!

Still, I am glad that I am not an Orc.

I have a peculiar feeling that if I were to ask for a cup of tea, I would get a cup of tea. And that is a very dangerous feeling.

I have a hatred of democracy, and a contempt for it.

The Nazis have corrupted and ruined the noble northern spirit.

I am in fact a Hobbit (in all but size).

The invention of the atomic bomb is a disaster for the world.

I cordially dislike allegory in all its manifestations.
