Meloni's emotional speech: I often quote Lord Of The Rings, but I swear it's not the only book I've read

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, quoting a passage from the book 'Lord Of The Rings', gave an emotional speech to Italian soldiers at the base in Lithuania.
"I often quote Lord Of The Rings, but I swear it's not the only book I've read."
Faramir when speaking of the battle says:
I do not love the shining sword for its sharp blade, nor the arrow for its speed, nor the warrior for his glory. I love him for his protection.
You don't choose to be a soldier out of hate. You choose to be a soldier out of love.
You don't choose to be a soldier because you love war. You choose to be a soldier because you love your country.
And that homeland needs protection. And you do this on the front lines, you do this every day. You will not see your children opening their Christmas presents, but Italy is grateful for this sacrifice. I am sure that your children will know how to be proud of you, as is all of Italy," said Meloni.
