Pipe The Hobbit quotes!

I couldn't find a thread with The Hobbit quotes on this first page, so I assume there has been awhile since there was one. I've just read The Hobbit for the first time, and I loved it, so I thought I'd start a topic. Anyway, the first quote is rather easy I should think! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

What a lot of things you use Good morning for!

The 2 other Hobbit quote threads were first posted in 2001; one of them's closed and the other hasn't been replyed to since April. So I think you're OK! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

AAAHA! I finally found it.
It was said by the great goblin to Thorin in a huge cavern under the Misty Mountains.

Your turn, Legolas. It was Gandalf to Thorin, but unfortunatly I lost my place in the book, so I don't remember what Thorin was whining about though.

Question

Thorin says this to the other dwarves as they sit "on the doorstep" of Smaugs lair and wait for Bilbo to decide something.

Now for a new quote....hmmmm...

"Get up lazybones," he said, "or there will be no breakfast left for you."

A page number would do you no good unless we have the same publishing. It's in Chapter 7: Queer Lodgings. Beorn was a bee-keeper - don't remember that?

Anyway, the next quote...

Besides they need no ropes in here.

'Besides they need no ropes in here, said the Elvenking,' There is no escape from my magic doors for those who are once brought inside.'
BTW, thanks for the chapter on the last one. I DID forget about Beorn keeping bees. Man-Bear-honey-bees, DUH!! [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

I really really hate it when someone other than the person giving the quote tells the answerer that they're correct unless it has been a week.
