Though I'd share some quotes that make me think of our beloved Helmer the Black. #LastLordCaptain #BestLordCaptain
"It must often be so...when things are in danger: some one has to give them up, lose them, so that others may keep them."

"It can't be all right if you die..."
"It can only be all right if I die...If my life has counted for anything, I want my death to count for something, too."

"...a noble death is a treasure which no one is too poor to buy."
The Last Battle, The Chronicles of Narnia, Book 7
"Though this is the end of the age of heroes, it has saved its best for last."
The novelization of Star Wars Episode III: The Revenge of the Sith
Okay, this one is just for fun:
"I am Gandalf, Gandalf the White; but Black is mightier still."
The Two Towers, The Lord of the Rings, Book 2
“Mourn not over much. Mighty was the fallen. Meet was his ending.”
