"Sam saw a white star twinkle for a while.
The beauty of it
smote his heart,
as he looked up out of the forsaken land,
& hope returned to
him.
For like a shaft, clear and cold,
the thought pierced him
that in the end
the Shadow was only
a small and passing thing:
there was light
and high beauty
for ever beyond its reach."
~ J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King
