Deep roots are not touched by the frost-Tolkien

All those complaining about moderation seem a bit shallow to me.
Tolkien said: "Deep roots are not touched by the frost"

for those who may not have the book handy this is
From Lord Of the Rings Book One Chapter 10(Strider)
"All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all who wonder are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep Roots are not reached by the frost.
From the Ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring.
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king."
.............................J.R.R.Tolkien
I'm thinking about putting a link to that secret fire
on my home page

I would read the quote again, then decide if those who complain about moderation are shallow.
Until then, I'll refrain from spitting bile.
