Tolkien quote of the day:

`Most gracious host,' said Frodo, 'it was said to me by Elrond Halfelven that I should find friendship upon the way, secret and unlooked for. Certainly I looked for no such friendship as you have shown. To have found it turns evil to great good.'

Frodo to Faramir, Journey to the Crossroads, TTT
