Bilbo to himself:
"I have heard songs of many battles, and I have always understood that defeat may be glorious. It seems very uncomfortable not to say distressing. I wish I was well out of it. |

That's the line! (I laughed when I first read this passage, I like it

Exact opposite for me - I've read (and liked) UT, but haven't read CoH, and really am not too eunthustic about it. I don't really like Turin you see....
I almost _____ that I _____ you ____, but do not let ____ be _____.

"I almost feel that I dislike you both, but do not let us be hasty!" ~Treebeard, upon meeting Merry and Pippin.
I love COH. Just as much as LOTR and The Sil. (TH is neat, but it's just not the same. I like it just a tinge less). I heard UT is a treat, so I can't wait to read it! Quote:

Correct!...I had the feeling that would be a fast one. I was too lazy to actually look something up...so grabbed and used the page topper.
![]() I like UT because of the Celeborn information contained within...and I'll admit, reading TH, I normally read the Rivendell, Mirkwood, and battle sections, skipping anything without elves.

This is one of my favourite passages too, althogh that hardly means anything considering how many favourites I have...
"Dear-_____ those _____ shall be _____, and yet shall be well-_____. For the _____ could be ______ other."
