The Life of One Man: A Compilation of Tales

“Still, I wonder if we shall ever be put into songs or tales. We’re in one, of course, but I mean: put into words, you know, told by the fireside, or read out of a great big book with red and black letters, years and years afterwards… And they will say: “Yes, that’s one of my favourite stories.”

― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Two Towers
