1 " Despite his money and his looks and all the good-on-paper attributes he possessed, he was not a reader, and, well, let's just say that is the sort of nonsense up with which we will not put. "

Your eyes are from him, the same blue, but you are slimmer of build and have your grandmother’s exotic face rather than his rounder, friendly one.

3 " Feris was taller than the average man and his looks were sinister in the form of long dark hair and deep-set eyes.

for the strength of his body and stoutness of heart.

(On Turin Turambar - The Children of Hurin) "

― J.R.R. Tolkien , The Lays of Beleriand (The History of Middle-Earth, #3)
