"There must be something worth living for There must be something worth trying for Even some things worth dying for And if one man can stand tall There must be hope for us all Somewhere, somewhere, in the spirit of man..." Beth in the song Spirit of Man from War of the Worlds. |

“Watch out he's winding the watch of his wit, by and by it will strike.” - The Tempest “At this hour Lie at my mercy all mine enemies.” - The Tempest "Be not afeard; the isle is full of noises, Sounds, and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not. Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments Will hum about mine ears; and sometime voices, That, if I then had waked after long sleep, Will make me sleep again: and then, in dreaming, The clouds methought would open, and show riches Ready to drop upon me; that, when I waked, I cried to dream again.” - The Tempest |

"Who holds the money, who holds the need Who holds the strings of misery or the purse of greed And the gunmen reap while the gangsters sow And law is cheap when the smugglers go Give us peace in our time Give us peace in our time While I have a life to live Then I have no life to give Give us peace in our time" -Big Country, "Peace in our time" |

He had entered the part of the city reserved for the temples. On all sides of him they glittered white in the starlight-snowy marble pillars and golden domes and silver arches, shrines of Zamora's myriad strange gods. He did not trouble his head about them; he knew that Zamora's religion, like all things of a civilized, long-settled people, was intricate and complex, and had lost most of the pristine essence in a maze of formulas and rituals. He had squatted for hours in the courtyard of the philosophers, listening to the arguments of theologians and teachers, and come away in a haze of bewilderment, sure of only one thing, and that, that they were all touched in the head. - Robert E. Howard, The Tower of the Elephant, Part II |

Conan the Barbarian, if I am not seriously mistaken, Curufinwë. I like the books. Some of the language is a bit old-fashioned (who talks seriously about mighty thews these days) but some of the stories are very, very good. |

A very obvious one: "The leaves were long, the grass was green, The hemlock-umbels tall and fair, And in the glade a light was seen Of stars in shadow shimmering. Tinuviel was dancing there To music of a pipe unseen, And light of stars was in her hair, And in her raiment glimmering. There Beren came from mountains cold, And lost he wandered under leaves, And where the Elven-river rolled. He walked along and sorrowing. He peered between the hemlock-leaves And saw in wonder flowers of gold Upon her mantle and her sleeves, And her hair like shadow following." Et cetera, et cetera. |
