->''Here ends the Silmarillion. If it has passed from the high and the beautiful to darkness and ruin, that was of old the fate of Arda Marred; and if any change shall come and the Marring be amended, Manwë and Varda may know; but they have not revealed it, and it is not declared in the dooms of Mandos.''

->''"Robotnik's initial dream was to recreate an amusement park, one that rivals the one from his childhood. He does not realize the tragedy of nostalgia. He is doomed never to recreate that feeling. He's built several failed attempts, his most recent in space, but none shall ever bring back the same feeling of his childhood. The first click of the roller coaster safety features. The first ever drop. The worry-filled joy of plummeting to the earth. No. Like Sisyphus, he will continue to fail, as will I. He has damned me to merely race Sonic forever. I can no longer revolt against my chains. I dare say, no one can. I wish I knew the roadmap of my remaining life. But I doubt it would make a difference. [[DespairEventHorizon I give up.]]"''
