"战争是必要的，当我们要保护自己的生命免受一个想要吞噬一切的毁灭者时；但我并不爱剑的锋利，也不爱箭的迅捷，更不爱战士的荣耀。我只爱他们所保卫的一切。"
— J.R.R. Tolkien

Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, we need to fight to protect ourselves from those who want to harm us. However, it's not about loving violence or the tools of war. The true value lies in what we're fighting for—our homes, families, and the things that make life worth living. Imagine a firefighter running into a burning building. They don’t love the fire or the danger; they do it to save lives and protect people. In life, while standing up to challenges or injustices, remember that the purpose is not to seek conflict but to safeguard the well-being and safety of those we care about. Balancing courage with the love for peace highlights what is truly important.
