You have only one choice. The Ring must be destroyed.

gif battle w/ @shiremaiden → #2 “Even darkness must pass. A new day will come.”
I can’t do this, Sam.
I know. It’s all wrong. By rights we shouldn’t even be here. But we are. It’s like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger, they were. And sometimes you didn’t want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the Sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you. That meant something, even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn’t. They kept going. Because they were holding on to something.
What are we holding onto, Sam?
That there’s some good in this world, Mr. Frodo… and it’s worth fighting for.

you guys I'm writing my speech about friendship in Tolkien and I thought I could ask for suggestions so anything you think I should mention especifically? as it is I will discuss for sure: Frodo/Sam Frodo/other hobbits Merry/Pippin Legolas/Gimli Bilbo/Gandalf Bilbo/Thorin Maedhros/Fingon I will credit you for any ideas if I use them (but it's just a speech so nothing published for now)
