middle-earth meme: eight relationships (5/8) ➝ boromir and faramir

Yet between the brothers there was great love, and had been since childhood, when Boromir was the helper and protector of Faramir. No jealousy or rivalry had arisen between them since, for their father’s favour or for the praise of men. It did not seem possible to Faramir that any one in Gondor could rival Boromir, heir of Denethor, Captain of the White Tower; and of like mind was Boromir.

l-o-t-r:

Faramir: “Never fitted me either. Boromir was always the soldier. They were so alike, he and my father. Proud… stubborn, even. But strong.”
Pippin: “I think you have strength, of a different kind. And one day your father will see it.”

“I do not love the bright sword for its sharpness, nor the arrow for its swiftness, nor the warrior for his glory. I love only that which they defend.” 

qveencerseii:

“Since you are robbed of Boromir, I will do what I can in his stead. If I should return, think better of me, father.”
“That will depend on the manner of your return.”

@undomiel asked: LOTR + favorite hero – Faramir

“His sense of duty was no less than yours, I deem. You wonder what his name is… where he came from. And if he was really evil at heart. What lies or threats led him on this long march from home. If he would not rather have stayed there… in peace. War will make corpses of us all.”
