"War must be, while we defend our lives against a destroyer who would devour all; but I do not love the bright sword for its sharpness, nor the arrow for its swiftness, nor the warrior for his glory. I love only that which they defend. . . ."
--Faramir, Captain of Gondor, The Lord of the Rings

what did you expect? ;-)

Thanks. Faramir was my favorite character in Tolkien. After all the ambivalence in the other characters, what a joy to come across him. He reminds me of the apostle John. (Too bad what the film did.)
