Where the Meme Comes From

The image is a still of Boromir, played by Sean Bean, in the film *The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring*.

The template spread online as a reaction image and image macro, with the original wording adapted to many difficult or daunting tasks.

How to Use the Template
