QUOTES: Riddles in the Dark




"It cannot be seen, cannot be felt,
Cannot be heard, cannot be smelt. 
It lies behind stars and under hills, 
And empty holes it fills. 
It comes first and follows after, 
Ends life, kills laughter."

~JRR Tolkien, The Hobbit

(Lest there should be any confusion or matter of rights and whatnot, all quotes in this post are from The Lord of the Rings by JRR Tolkien, unless otherwise mentioned. There may be slight errors, misspellings, or alternate punctuation in the quotes, and if you notice such, please inform me so that I can speedily remedy them. But I think the fact that I made this blog proves that I would never intentionally change something of Tolkien's in the transcribing of it.)
