Firefoot · 01-28-2005, 02:51 PM

I believe it is:

Quote:

"For of us is required a blind trust, and a hope without assurance, knowing not what lies before us in a little while. And yet we also love the earth, and would not lose it."

I looked, and I have no idea who said it - would you mind imparting this bit of knowledge?

Eruanna · 01-28-2005, 03:42 PM

Well done Firefoot. I too had got the quote but couldn't place it. Hopefully Guinevere will be along to enlighten us soon

Guinevere · 01-28-2005, 03:46 PM

You got the quote perfectly right, Firefoot, even if you didn't recognize it!

It is from the Akallabêth; the Númenóreans speaking to the messengers of Manwë.

Firefoot · 01-28-2005, 04:13 PM

And I looked there, too!

Oh well. New quote:
