Reminds me of Aulé explaining his reasons for the creation of the dwarves to Ilúvatar.

&quot;I see that strange tales are woven about you, and once again it is shown that looks may belie the man -or the halfling.&quot;

Erm

It sounds like Boromir doubting the choice of Frodo to go into Mordor (partly because of his lust for the ring) all though I can't remember where. <img src=smile.gif ALT=":)">

Surely this isn't as easy as Thorin saying he would need no map to find the Lonely Mountain to Gandalf in Bag End, following so closely on the heels of your other Hobbit quote as it does?

</p>

HerenIstarion 02-02-2001 09:59 AM

Surely, this is not Thorin speaking

Re

That sounds cute, like somthing Sam would do.

That was Dori about Bilbo when the wolves were coming into the glade. Afterwords however he did get down and pull him into the tree.

Re: Take Care

OK who said &quot;Since you are inclined to ask the story of my sorrows, and rekindle my own sad memories in respect of them, I do not know how to begin.&quot; Wait, that's not Tolkien. Try this:

<blockquote>Quote:<hr> Please be more careful, next time, or we shall never get anywhere. <hr></blockquote>

Re: Take Care

So who was that other quote?

But tell me, who are you, alone, yourself and nameless?</p>

Re: Mystery Quote Revealed

Elrond to Aragorn, via Halbarad?

My other quote above was MY namesake, from The Odyssey -- since Eowyn quoted her namesake I felt obliged to stand up for the Man Wise in All Ways of Contending.

Re: Mystery Quote Revealed

I think it actually comes to Aragorn (and is spoken by Aragorn) from Elrond via his sons.

</p>

HerenIstarion 03-01-2001 12:26 PM

I was looking for Aragorn, as it is actually spoken by Aragorn (though quoting Elrond he may have been). Ask on, Mr. Underhill

Re: Mystery Quote Revealed

New one:<blockquote>Quote:<hr> Did you then dwell a year in the wild? Or did the eagles house you in their eyries? But you found food and fine raiment, and return as young princes, not as waifs of the wood.<hr></blockquote>Who to whom, and what are they talking about?
