Today is blog post #1461 on The Creekbank Blog.
I love quotes and collect them wherever I find them. All 159 of my journals contain quotes and sayings that have shaped my life.
I usually write them out by hand, then decorate with ink and colored pencil.
This is a good week to share some of them.
Enjoy!
The Lord of the Rings series has been a favorite of mine long before Frodo’s and Bilbo’s names became well-known.
This quote is when Gandalf the wizard, standing on a narrow passageway, stamps his staff at a gaggle of evil demons who are pursuing Frodo, and says,
“You SHALL NOT pass HERE.”
I like it because it’s about taking a stand and choosing your hill to die on.
Gandalf’s bold stand is from the chapter, “Choose Your Hill,” in my latest book, The Three Trees.
