Then answered I, and said, So be it, O LORD.»

We are threatened with many evils, and treason not least; but one thing is not said: that we shall suffer from cowardice, from cravens or the fear of cravens. Therefore I say that we will go on, and this doom I add: the deeds that we shall do shall be the matter of song until the last days of Arda.»
«When a chivalrous man makes an oath, he is faithful to it, and when he attains power, he spares his enemy.»
