"Behold this Heart which has loved men so much . . ." - Our Lord Jesus to Saint Margaret Mary Alacoque.
My Jesus, I trust in thee.
"It [the Ring] is mine, isn't it, I found it, and Gollum would have killed me, if I hadn't kept it. I'm not thief, whatever he said."
"I have never called you one," Gandalf answered. "And I am not one either. I am not trying to rob you, but to help you. I wish you would trust me, as you used." He turned away, and the shadow passed. He seemed to dwindle again to an old grey man, bent and troubled.
