Peter Ames makes a good point about context: Unfortunately by focusing on that single line, it misses the entire meaning, when put in context that line means something totally different 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 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 When taken as a whole that line is about Aragorn, that he was more than the dull lost ranger that he appeared to be and the wandering was necessary for him to come to grips with his destiny to take up the sword of Isildur and claim the throne of Gondor.
