1 " Do you really believe ... that everything historians tell us about men – or about women – is actually true? You ought to consider the fact that these histories have been written by men, who never tell the truth except by accident. "
― Moderata Fonte , The Worth of Women: Wherein Is Clearly Revealed Their Nobility and Their Superiority to Men
2 " Among the tales of sorrow and of ruin that came down to us from the darkness of those days there are yet some in which amid weeping there is joy and under the shadow of death light that endures. And of these histories most fair still in the ears of the Elves is the tale of Beren and Lúthien "
― J.R.R. Tolkien , The Silmarillion
