High Duke · 08-31-2002, 05:14 AM

Yes.Your turn.

Beren87 · 08-31-2002, 08:42 AM

Who said, "Deep is the Abyss that is spanned Durin's Bridge, and none has measured it.

Lothiriel Silmarien · 08-31-2002, 08:58 AM

Gimli?

Morgoth Bauglir · 08-31-2002, 01:33 PM

if gimli isnt right (which it most likely is) it is gandalf.

Beren87 · 08-31-2002, 03:18 PM

Yep, Gimli talking to Gandalf in TTT.
Your turn Lothiriel.

Quote:

But we will speak no more counsel of prudence.

Morgoth Bauglir · 08-31-2002, 09:30 PM

gandalf?

High Duke · 09-01-2002, 07:02 AM

Imrahil?

Lothiriel Silmarien · 09-01-2002, 12:05 PM

I made a tiny mistake, the quote is, "But we will speak no more counsels of prudence." I left out that little s after counsel [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] Sorry!

But no, it's not Gandalf or Imrahil.

Morgoth Bauglir · 09-01-2002, 03:47 PM

Uh............. Elrond?

Lothiriel Silmarien · 09-01-2002, 06:37 PM

Nope. I never think I'd see the day when I actually posted a quote that stumps both Morgoth and High Duke! (although I hardly call a first or second guess stumping, but let me bask in my glory [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img] ) You both usually always get it on the first try though!

Morgoth Bauglir · 09-02-2002, 10:18 AM

Question: Are we allowed to use the books?

I tried looking a bit, but could not find it. My third (and last) guess would be Aragorn, though i think its not right.

Lothiriel Silmarien · 09-02-2002, 11:33 AM

Of course you can use the book. Although sometimes I'm stubborn and I don't use the book because I like to see if I can get it. But after I make about a million guesses, I just end up looking in the book! (but sometimes I get it without looking! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] )

Nope, it's not Aragorn.

High Duke · 09-03-2002, 05:24 AM

It was Theoden i'm sure.

bombur · 09-15-2002, 05:35 AM

I dont have the books here, but I'd guess...

Mandos

Thanks for food for thought anyways.

Lothiriel Silmarien · 09-15-2002, 02:22 PM

High Duke got it! It was Theoden.

TolkienGurl · 10-25-2002, 12:57 PM

Who said this and what was the person referring to?

hobbitlass · 10-26-2002, 04:25 PM

Gandalf said it to Legolas about the "winged messenger", a Nazgul.

TolkienGurl · 10-27-2002, 08:37 AM

yup. go ahead! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

hobbitlass · 10-27-2002, 08:31 PM

Quote:

The very air seems thick and brown! Do you often have such glooms when the wind is in the East?

Who said it and to whom?

Childlike Empress · 10-27-2002, 11:40 PM

Sam or Frodo to Faramir while they were in Osgiliath?

Telchar · 10-28-2002, 02:20 AM

First of all Sam and Frodo was never in Osgiliath with Faramir... Secondly it was Pippin Talking to Beregond

hobbitlass · 10-28-2002, 03:34 PM

Very good, Telchar, proceed.

Quote:

The day has come! Behold, people of the Eldar and Fathers of Men, the day has come! And all those who heard his great voice echo in the hills answered crying: "Auta i lome!" ' The night is passing!' And thus began the assault on Morgoth and his vast armies.

Was this Fingon?
I remembered this quote because I read it yesterday [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Its a great passage isn't if? try to read it again and you'll probably be able to figure out who should be credited for the quote [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Aramacil · 10-29-2002, 01:08 PM

*Slaps his forehead*
Oooh yes it’s not Fingon, it are all the people/elves that are assembled there for the battle.

What a dumb mistake. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Aramacil · 11-13-2002, 02:02 PM

It's been a while now, and I am pretty sure I'm right so I'll continue.

Quote:

They cannot conquer for ever!

LePetitChoux · 11-13-2002, 02:08 PM

Gandalf? (dammit, I just read ttt and have clean forgot it...I even remmber the actual bit! [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Aramacil · 11-14-2002, 10:47 AM

No, It's not Gandalf.
sorry [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

LePetitChoux · 11-14-2002, 12:39 PM

Its Galadriel!

Aramacil · 11-14-2002, 01:53 PM

No, you are wrong again, I'll give you a little hint:
It's not Galadriel or Gandalf [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Galadel Vinorel · 11-14-2002, 07:35 PM

Was it Frodo? [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]

Aramacil · 11-15-2002, 09:26 AM

Yes, it was Frodo! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Quote:

The eyes were hollow and the carven beard was broken, but about the high stern forehead there was a coronal of silver and gold. A trailing plant with flowers like small white stars had bound itself across the brows as if in reverence for the fallen king, and in the crevices of his stony hair yellow stonecrop gleamed.
"They cannot conquer for ever!" said Frodo. And then suddenly the brief glimpse was gone. The Sun dipped and vanished, and as if at the shuttering of a lamp, black night fell.

please continue and give us a new quote.
