More from The Two Towers

• "Many are my names in many countries: Mithrandir among the Elves, Tharkûn to the Dwarves; Olórin I was in my youth in the West that is forgotten, in the South Incánus, in the North Gandalf; to the East I go not."
• "One who cannot cast away a treasure at need is in fetters."
• All that is gold does not glitter, Not all who wander are lost.
• The love of the Elves for their land and their works is deeper than the deeps of the Sea, and their regret is undying and cannot ever wholly be assuaged.
