The entire poem is:
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.
The Fellowship of the Ring. Bilbo Baggins recites the poem at the Council of Elrond.
Tolkien buff!

"If we are to teach real peace in this world, and if we are to carry on a
real war against war, we shall have to begin with the children."
---Mahatma Gandhi
"History will have to record that the greatest tragedy of this period of
social transition was not the strident clamor of the bad people, but the
appalling silence of the good people." --Martin Luther King
