Tolkien Quotes

"It's the job that's never started as takes longest to finish." 
- J.R.R. Tolkien
I like this quote a lot because it reminds me of how much I procrastinate in doing my work. I know that starting work is probably one of the hardest parts, but I still struggle making that first step sometimes. 


"I will not walk backward in life." 
-J.R.R. Tolkien
This is another simple quote from Tolkien that I like. I think it carries the ideas that we shouldn't fall into the same mistakes twice, and we shouldn't revert to bad habits we have. We should keep moving forward in life and try improve ourselves.


I have never read any of J.R.R. Tolkien's books before, so I didn't really know any quotes from him prior to today (except, "You shall not pass," which is a very epic line). I typed "J.R.R. Tolkien quotes" into Google and found a website with a lot of his quotes.
