everything sad

In The Lord of the Rings, Sam Gamgee finds Gandalf was not dead as he had thought. He proclaims, "I thought you were dead! But then I thought I was dead myself! Is everything sad going to come untrue?"

In Matthew 19.28 Jesus tells us the answer, "Yes!"

A beautiful quote, Rick. Great writing on Tolkien's part. Thanks for pointing that out, especially during "the bleak midwinter."
