"I love not 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." -Faramir<br>One of my favorite lines in all of the legendarium.

Faramir is one of my favourite characters. The pair of brothers are a magnificent example of the race of men - true nobility, each in their own way.

what I love is that both Boromir and Faramir Both thought the world of each-other. So often in fiction you get the trope of the competitive Siblings, but they both knew their own strengths and weaknesses. both of them being noble and capable Warriors, but Boromir Perhaps being the better General and Faramir Perhaps Being the Better tactician and being more than happy to follow his older brother. And Boromir more than happy to take the advice of his younger brother. Make me wonder what a world where Boromir became Steward with Faramir by his side as his Chief adviser would have been.

Faramir is my favorite character in lotr, he’s such a good person. His and Eowyn’s relationship is so sweet and so good for both of them. People tend to forget that Eowyn was borderline suicidal when going to the battle, she wanted to die a Warrior’s death, and nearly did. Faramir gives her something she desperately needed: Hope. The ‘Estel’ type of hope described in the video. <br><br>I love them both to pieces and would LOVE videos on them. Maybe in the “Lord of The Rings from X perspective” videos on both?

Only one thing left out: Sam's observation that while Frodo did indeed have an Elvish air about him he sensed in Faramir something of wizards. Faramir replied, "Perhaps you sense the distant air of Numenor". A great scene in the book.

If ever a character deserved to live "Happily ever after," it's Faramir.

Faramir and Eowyn are my to favorite characters in Lord of the Rings so I was so happy when they met and got married.

What a coincidence, I just read the part in The Two Towers where Frodo, Sam and Gollim meet Faramir. He seemed so much more interesting and wise in the books than he was portrayed in the films

Eowyn and Faramir is such an underrated love story.

His almost perfect moral character is so aspirational. I adore Faramir!!!

Faramir of the book is one of the handful of characters in Gondor that I would have personally loved to have a long, lore-filled conversation with.
