"The Farmer Giles of Ham:
Fabulous tale of the days when giants and dragons walked the kingdom. Full of scholar's wit.
The Adventures of Tom Bombadil:
By turns gay, prattling, melancholy, nonsensical, mysterious. And what is most exciting and attractive about them is their superb technical skill. Professor Tolkien revealed in the verses scattered through The Hobbit that he had a talent for songs, riddling rhymes, and a kind of balladry. In The Adventures of Tom Bombadil the talent can be seen to be something close to genius."

"A acupuntura é a arte de tratamento que implica na inserção de agulhas em alguns pontos específicos do corpo. Esses pontos são chamados de pontos de acupuntura. A acupuntura digital, conforme o nome está dizendo, é o tipo de tratamento que implica na massagem digital sobre os pontos de acupuntura. O autor [...] selecionou os pontos de acupuntura mais eficientes para treatar certos males comuns, empregando a técnica digital. É simples, fácil, inofensiva e eficiente na maioria dos casos. Pode ser usada em qualquer lugar e por qualquer pessoa sem um conhecimento especial. Os passientes não se assustam, pois não se trata de enfiar agulhas. E, na prática, esse tratamento pode ser aplicado como um método de primeiros socorros devido à sua eficácia e conveniência. E, no processo, não é necessário o emprego de qualquer equipamento ou droga."
