I’ve been collecting quotes from books for years now and figure it’s high time I put them to use. So here is the quote of the week:
“Pippin was bruised and torn, his aching head was grated by the filthy jowl and hairy ear of the Orc that held him. Immediately in front were bowed backs, and tough thick legs going up and down, up and down, unresting, as if they were made of wire and horn, beating out the nightmare seconds of an endless time.
The Two Towers, J. R. R. Tolkien

What an excellent way to put those quotes to use! J.R.R Tolkien is such an amazingly fluid writer! I’m just reading through The Lord of the Rings series for the first time and I too am finding some wonderful quotes!
