Absolutely Beautiful – FUCK ruzzia – FUCK pootin – SLAVA UKRAINI HEROYAM SLAVA 🇺🇦 🇺🇦 🇺🇦
We’ve got Gandalf on our side, the orks don’t stand a chance.
Poem by [Дронь Артур Виталійович](http://uk.wikipedia.org/wiki/Дронь_Артур_Віталійович)
great
Frodo: „I wish none of this had happened.“
Gandalf: *“*So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil.“
Thank you sir.
Slava Ukraini 🙏🇺🇦
This is blended with 1st Corinthians 13, if anyone is wondering.
1st Corinthians 13
1If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 2If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.
3If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing. 4Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
7It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 8Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. 11When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me.
12For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known. 13And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
It’s subtle, but I think he had to reign in his emotions at one point to continue reading. What an actor, what a man.
As a child I wanted to be Gandalf. Now, halfway through life, I just want to be Ian McKellen.
I think I might have got something in my eye
Thanks Ian!!
Beautiful and terrible, congratulations to Artur Dron on this crushing and gentle poem. Slava Ukraini!
No, _you’re_ crying
Ian is one of those people you could listen to all day. If you’ve heard him recite Shakespeare, it’s a delight even if you’ve never heard Shakespeare before.
He is a treasure with a heart and mind that stands with the truest virtues of mankind.
