Yay! Someone got it!

Your turn, Evisse.

Quote:

"Rewards!" said Frodo. "I can't imagine a more severe punishment. You are not thinking what you are saying: condemned to go on this hopeless journey, a reward? Yesderday I dreamed that my task was done, and I could rest here, a long while, perhaps for good."

Frodo to the other hobbits.

Evisse the Blue · 01-05-2005, 02:54 PM

Yep!

Guinevere · 01-05-2005, 03:22 PM

This is Legolas:
"But I count you blessed, Gimli son of Gloin: for your loss you suffer of your own free will, and you might have chosen otherwise. But you have not forsaken your companions, and the least reward that you shall have is that the memory of Lothlorien shall remain ever clear and unstained in your heart, and shall neither fade nor grow stale."

Firefoot · 01-05-2005, 03:24 PM

You sure wasted no time figuring that out... good job!

Guinevere · 01-06-2005, 03:40 PM

Thank you, Firefoot!

I know this one!

"A most unquenchable hobbit! All Wizards should have a hobbit or two in their care - to teach them the meaning of the word and to correct them."

Gandalf to Merry.

lord of dor-lomin · 03-02-2005, 09:30 AM

You forgot the comma after "word". I'm sorry. I can't give it to you.

Well... okay- but just this time.

Evisse the Blue · 03-02-2005, 11:12 AM

But technically there shouldn't be a comma before 'and'.

"_____ in this _______ _______ gleams _____. Our _____'s _____ oft ____ us in his ______. The ______ _____ itself has _____ a _____ ___ us. And now, _____ to _____ ______ and _____ it down ____ from _____, the ____ have _____ _____ my _______ _____."

the phantom · 03-02-2005, 11:24 AM

Let me see here- I think this is right...

"Even in this gloom hope gleams again. Our enemy's devices oft serve us in his despite. The accursed darkness itself has been a cloak to us. And now, lusting to destroy Gondor and throw it down stone from stone, the orcs have taken away my greatest fear."

Evisse the Blue · 03-03-2005, 05:10 AM

Yep, that's exactly right!

Evisse the Blue · 03-08-2005, 08:28 AM

the phantom · 03-08-2005, 10:27 PM

Here it is-

Quote:

Guinevere · 03-09-2005, 02:40 AM

Gollum speaking to Sam in Ithilien:
"He has brought rabbits, nice rabbits. But master has gone to sleep, and perhaps Sam wants to sleep. Doesn't want rabbits now? Sméagol tries to help, but he can't catch things all in a minute."

Found it!

"It is a fair tale, though it is sad, as are all the tales of Middle-earth, and yet it may lift up your hearts."

Strider to the four hobbits; the tale is that of Tinúviel.

Guinevere · 05-25-2005, 01:36 PM

that's it , Firefoot!

That is also the effect of the book on the reader: it lifts up the heart!

Firefoot · 05-25-2005, 02:05 PM

Sure is.

"At the _______ I shall ____ ___ to the ____ ________ again. No, when the _______ _____, not at _______. The ________ has _____. There will be __ ____."

"At the sunrise I shall take you to the Lord Denethor again. No, when the summons comes, not at sunrise. The Darkness has begun. There will be no dawn."

Gandalf to Pip in Minas Tirith.

Firefoot · 05-28-2005, 03:51 PM

Firefoot · 05-29-2005, 05:51 AM

"Once he was as great as his fame made him. His knowledge was deep, his thought was subtle, and his hands marvellously skilled; and he had a power over the minds of others. The wise he could persuade, and the smaller folk he could daunt."

Aragorn to Pippin about Saruman.

Evisse the Blue · 05-29-2005, 03:11 PM

Correct.

Firefoot · 05-29-2005, 08:01 PM

"______ not! _____ _____ will not be ______. ____ now in ___________; and when you ___ in _____ with your ____, _____ of __! For _____ now shall I ___ with ___ in ________, as I ________, or ______ to ____ ____-____."
