Re: on Elves
This is one of my favorite quotes, I don't know why, it just is. It is from Silm. Of the Sun and the Moon and the Hiding of Valinor.
Manwe's answer to his heralds after Feanor refused to return to Valinor and receive judgement.
"So shall it be! Dear-bought those songs shall be accounted, and yet shall be well-brought. For the price could be no other. Thus even as Eru spoke to us shall beauty not before conceived be brought into Ea, and evil yet be good to have been."
But Mandos said: "And yet remain evil. To me shall Feanor come soon."
