It's a dangerous business, picking up a pen. You start writing words, and if you don't keep your fingers, there's no knowing what story might result.

The power of words:
Your will manifests itself in the words you speak. Whether they be curses, or words of joy, the soul of those words yields power.

- Regal Bryant, Tales of Symphonia

Frodo: I can't do this, Sam.
Sam: I know. It's all wrong. By rights we shouldn't even be here. But we are. It's like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger, they were. And sometimes you didn't want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it's only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you. That meant something, even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn't. They kept going. Because they were holding on to something.
Frodo: What are we holding onto, Sam?
Sam: That there's some good in this world, Mr. Frodo... and it's worth fighting for.

"Now" is a fleeting passage of time.

First it looms at you from the future, then it passes you by without a second thought, and then it becomes a distant memory before you realize it.
