There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.

There is no comfort in change but also no learning in the steady drone of peace
There will be no greater sorrow than watching you go—except for watching you grow old and tired here—clarity awaits elsewhere.
