A favorite quote from Tolkien

Elrond to Council:

"It is perilous to study the arts of the enemy too deeply, for good or for ill."

2 Cor.3:18 "But we all with unveiled faces beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of theLord."

Phil. 4:8 "Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is worthy of reverence and is honorable and seemly, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is kind and winsome and gracious, if there is anything worthy of praise, think on and weigh and take account of these things.(fix your mind on them)."
