As requested by Nenya, here is Frodo's quote from
The Grey Havens...
Quote:
|
'So I thought too, once. But I have been hurt too deeply, Sam. I tried to save the Shire, and it has been saved, but not for me. It must often be so, Sam, when things are in danger: some one has to give them up, lose them, so that others may keep them....'

Yes even the greatest victories can sometimes be bittersweet as it was in Frodo's case as he had to leave his home in the Shire and Middle-Earth in order to find peace with the Elves in the West...
