Because in fantasy perhaps more than in any other genre$$$ the character is rewarded for making the right choices and punished for making the bad. Ask Boromir.

Nothing resembles selfishness more closely than self-respect.

Someday they'll give a war and nobody will come.

The single clenched fist lifted and ready$$$Or the open asking hand held out and waiting.Choose:For we meet by one or the other.

Revolt and terror pay a price.Order and law have a cost.

You've got to learn to live with what you can't rise above.

Now young faces grow sad and old and hearts of fire grow cold. We swore blood brothers against the wind. I'm ready to grow young again

A book is never a masterpiece: it becomes one.

I take you and pile high the memories. Death will break her claws on some I keep.

Poetry is the opening and closing of a door$$$ leaving those who look through to guess about what was seen during a moment.
