Not so oddly enough,  I think,  Ms. Wright may be wrong!   ; )

I believe you can attribute this wisdom to JRR Tolkien, as in the following.

"All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by 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."
