What Nuru said...
What was it that Gandalf says to Frodo about the smallest post changing the course of a discussion? Though I enjoy reading well-informed, even learned posts and digging into the book as well as finding background information in the additional volumes (HoME and such), sometimes the posts I enjoy most are those that share very personal experiences of reading. It's fun to remember seeing things with the freshness of first reading, or hearing from others that a passage gave them strength to cope with their real life. There are things you have to say that no one else can say - this is a good place to try that out! Besides, sometimes short posts that have something to say are much more interesting than repetitive long posts - burrahobbit, for example, has a reputation for being one of our wittiest posters and specializes in very brief posts!
