Aragon's speech is inspirational and I thought we could use a little inspiration and hope. We have only begun to fight! So hold true and press forward.

I find Tolkien’s dialogue more motivating than Peter Jackson (He-who couldn’t stand the Scouring of the Shire, and therefore did not include it)

It’s been years since I had seen LOTR. Interestingly enough, I just a few minutes ago finished watching this movie.
And yes, it was an inspiring little speech.

I am expecting such a speech soon from Sarah Palin.

To: JPII Be Not Afraid
A day may come when the courage of Men fails
When we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship

But it is not this day

An hour of wolves and shattered shields when the Age of Man comes crashing down

But it is not this day!
