Without the works of Tolkien, would you remain unchanged? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I believe reading Tolkien changed my life. As well as reviving my love for reading, it also exposed me to a lot of wisdom. For example, in The Grey Havens, Frodo says something to the effect of "I have to give things up so that others can enjoy them." LOtR and Tolkien's other works changed my life; without reading them, I think my life would have been much more shallow. Maybe. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]_
