Three Quotes Challenge – Day 2

Jul’ at Les Petits Pas de Juls invited me to participate in the on-going Three Quotes Challenge.  Thank you, Jul’! I absolutely love the idea of this challenge. There are some great quotes out there.

Today’s quote is from J. R. R. Tolkein. As a fantasy writer, it’s almost a requirement to use one of the King of Fantasy’s quotes! This one reminds me of hobbits, and it makes me smile every time I hear it.

“If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien

The rules of the challenge are:

• I – Post your favorite quotes or your own quotes for three (3) posts in a row.
• II – Thank the person who nominated you.
• III – Pass it on to three (3) other bloggers per quote, each time you post them.
• IIIb – Or pass it to nine (9) bloggers if you choose to post all the quotes together, in the same post.

Now I nominate:

The Houdinian

Vivien at Vivien Reis

M. L. at Homesteading at Home

To my reader and writer friends, I would especially like to see a quote from your favorite book or one from your own work!
