There have never really been any standards for a Featured Quote, but let us begin. Following the general model of the Featured Article, let's specify a nomination followed by five affirmative votes; state either Agree or Disagree. The nominated quote should not exceed a single paragraph.
Tolkien's Own
- "The Hobbits are just rustic English people, made small in size because it reflects the generally small reach of their imagination --not the small reach of their courage or latent power."
- ― J.R.R. Tolkien
- Disagree; though, yes, Tolkien wrote them all, the first and third are in-universe and should thus be attributed to their respective characters. -- Ederchil (Talk/Contribs/Edits) 07:56, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
- Undecided -I think if you add "- not the small reach of their courage or latent power" to the end, then I might agree.-- KingAragorn talk contribs edits email 17:00, 19 February 2009 (UTC)
