On Loss and Sacrifice - The Lord of the Rings
“But,” said Sam, and tears started in his eyes, “I thought you were going to enjoy the Shire, too, for years and years, after all you have done.”
“So I thought too, once. But I have been too deeply hurt, Sam. I tried to save the Shire, and it has been saved, but not for me. It must often be so, Sam, when things are in danger someone has to give them up, lose them, so...

Speaking About Galadriel and Unexpected Wounds
The travelers now turned their faces to the journey; the sun was before them and their eyes were dazzled, for all were filled with tears. Gimli wept openly. “I have looked the last upon that which was fairest,” he said to Legolas his companion. “Henceforth I will call nothing fair, unless it be her gift.” He put his hand to his breast. “Tell me, Legolas, why did I...

[Eowyn] “Shall I always left behind when the Riders depart, to mind the house while they win renown, and find foods and beds when they return?” “A time may come soon,” said [Aragorn], “when none will return. Then there will be need of valour without renown, for none shall remember the deeds that are done in the last defense of your homes. Yet deeds will not be less...

Elf vs. Dwarf: Debating Commitment
“…The further you go, the less easy will it be to withdraw; yet no oath or bond is laid on you to go further than you will. For you do not yet know the strength of your hearts, and you cannot foresee what each may meet upon the road.”
“Faithless is he that says farewell when the road darkens,” said Gimli.
“Maybe,” said Elrond, “but let him not vow to walk in the dark, who has not seen the...

Humans are by definition imperfect. You cannot demand perfection from a mere mortal. Perfection - or rather anything approximating any ideal for love, honesty, faith, etc. - can only be obtained through a higher power.
