His hopeless challenge dauntless criedFingolfin there: 'Come, open wide,dark king, you ghatsly brazen doors!Come forth, whom earth and heaven abhors!Come forth, O monstruous craven lord,and fight with thine own hand and sword,thou wielder of hosts of banded thralls,thou tyrant leaguered with strong walls,thou foe of Gods and elvish race!I wait thee here. Come! Show thy face!

J.R.R. Tolkien _ The Lays of Beleriand
As a lord was heldfor the strength of his body and stoutness of heart.Much lore he learned, and loved wisdombut fortune followed him in few desires;oft wrong and awry what he wrought turned;what he loved he lost, what he longed for he won not;and full friendship he found not easily,nor was lightly loved for his looks were sad.He was gloom-hearted, and glad seldomfor the sundering sorrow that filled his youth...{On Turin Turambar - The Children of Hurin}
