Tolkien quote of the day:

‘Alas! There are some wounds that cannot be wholly cured’, said Gandalf – not in Middle-earth. Frodo was sent or allowed to pass over Sea to heal him – if that could be done before he died. He would have eventually to ‘pass away’: no mortal could, or can, abide forever on earth, or even within Time. So he went both to a purgatory and to a reward, for a while: a period of reflection and peace and a gaining of a truer understanding of his position in littleness and in greatness, spent still in Time amid the natural beauty of ‘Arda Unmarred’, the Earth unspoiled by evil.
