When in doubt, blame the dark elves Picture Quote #1

... The plural of elf is elves! What a language! What a world! Picture Quote #1

Elves are cool, man Picture Quote #1

On the tawny sands and shelves trip the pert fairies and the dapper elves Picture Quote #1

Elves have this superhuman strength, yet they’re so graceful. Tolkien created them to be angelic spirits, but I also saw Legolas as something out of the Seven Samurai Picture Quote #1

I don’t think we have enough imaginary creatures in cinema. It seems like we’re stuck with zombies, vampires, and werewolves. We should have everything. We should have minotaurs. We should have elves. We should have mermen in popular culture. But instead we’ve stuck with vampires Picture Quote #1

Now, science cannot completely exclude the possibility of supernatural explanation. It is possible though very unlikely that our whole world is controlled by elves. But supernatural explanations like these are simply never needed; we manage to understand the natural world just fine using reason and materialism Picture Quote #1

No Hands’ art goes straight back to Warhol. He was the first to use elves Picture Quote #1

I want to be magic. I want to touch the heart of the world and make it smile. I want to be a friend of elves and live in a tree. Or under a hill. I want to marry a moonbeam and hear the stars sing. I don’t want to pretend at magic anymore. I want to be magic Picture Quote #1

When someone writes something dazzlingly brilliant, people want to imitate it. The result is a lot of less-than-brilliant knock-offs. Elves, Dwarves, Goblin army, cursed ring, evil sorcerer. Tolkien did it. It rocked. Let’s move on. Let’s do something new Picture Quote #1

The fantasy world, the ‘Game of Thrones’ world, the forgotten realms worlds - they’re the type of worlds I’ve always wanted to live in. Where vampires, dragons, dwarves and elves are real Picture Quote #1

We do not want merely to see beautywe want something else which can hardly be put into words- to be united with the beauty we see, to pass into it, to receive it into ourselves, to bathe in it, to become part of it. That is why we have peopled air and earth and water with gods and goddesses, and nymphs and elves Picture Quote #1

Her eyes the glowworm lend thee, The shooting stars attend thee; And the elves also, Whose little eyes glow Like the sparks of fire, befriend thee Picture Quote #1

It is plain indeed that in spite of later estrangement Hobbits are relatives of ours: far nearer to us than Elves, or even than Dwarves. Of old they spoke the languages of Men, after their own fashion, and liked and disliked much the same things as Men did. But what exactly our relationship is can no longer be discovered Picture Quote #1

I’m not implying that fantasy is for kids. I’m saying that more and more people are finally realizing that there’s more to fantasy stories than elves and wizards and goblin armies Picture Quote #1

At Halloween, when fairy sprites Perform their mystic gambols, When ilka witch her neebour greets, On their nocturnal rambles; When elves at midnight-hour are seen, Near hollow caverns sportin, Then lads an’ lasses aft convene, In hopes to ken their fortune, By freets that night Picture Quote #1

Lovers have lived so long with giants and elves, they won’t believe again in their own size Picture Quote #1

Elves are wonderful. They provoke wonder. Elves are marvellous. They cause marvels. Elves are fantastic. They create fantasies. Elves are glamorous. They project glamour. Elves are enchanting. They weave enchantment. Elves are terrific. They beget terror. The thing about words is that meanings can twist just like a snake, and if you want to find snakes look for them behind words that have changed their meaning. No one ever said elves are nice. Elves are bad Picture Quote #1

To me in my childhood, elves and fairies of all sorts were very real things, and my dolls were as really children as I was myself a child Picture Quote #1

Sometimes I wish that just solving the plot problems was enough. And then elves would go and do all the actual work moving the words around Picture Quote #1

All writers have this vague hope that the elves will come in the night and finish any stories Picture Quote #1

… people didn’t seem to be able to remember what it was like with the elves around. Life was certainly more interesting then, but usually because it was shorter. And it was more colorful, if you liked the color of blood Picture Quote #1

Enchanted worlds still exist because the child within us never dies. The doorways may be more obscure, but we can still seek them out. There are still noble adventures to undertake. There are still trees that speak and caverns that lead to nether realms. There will always be faeries and elves within nature because they will always be dancing in our hearts Picture Quote #1

Goblins burrowed in the earth, elves sang songs in the trees: Those were the obvious wonders of reading, but behind them lay the fundamental marvel that, in stories, words could command things to be Picture Quote #1

Elves are like trees, grounded and focused from the trunk down but graceful and agile on top Picture Quote #1

Each has its lesson; for our dreams in sooth, come they in shape of demons, gods, or elves, are allegories with deep hearts of truth that tell us solemn secrets of ourselves Picture Quote #1

Her eyes the glow worm lend thee, the shooting stars attend thee; and the elves also, whose little eyes glow like the sparks of fire, befriend thee Picture Quote #1
