the guy who be short has just left Hobbiton.
Tolkien

theres too many quotes for me to even think of! here's a few from the to of my head, not necessarily my favourites

elendil- in this place will i abide and my heirs until the worlds end

gandalf: you shall not pass. i wield the secret flame of arda. (and the rest which ive forgotten)

feanor- see this? it is sharper than thy tongue!

fingolfin- half brother in blood, full brother in heart shall i be. thou shalt lead and i will follow ( i love that 1)

i like the bit when saruman dies- and a pale mist rose from him, and lingered for a while, looking to the west. but from the west came a cold hard wind.

the ents war song

argh! theres way 2 many!

all the songs, such as gil galad was an elven king, a elbereth gilthoniel, 3 rings, all that is gold does not glitter, song of the ent and the entwife, old tom bombadil... basically all the songs

gandalf- fool of a took!

gimli- an elf goes into a cave and a adwarf dares not!

iluvatur to aule- i shall grant them life. but oft there shall be strife between mine and thine

those are just from memory, and i still have more you are sooo lucky i dont have the lord of the rings and silmarillion in front of me!

the line i like least is in the hobbit, when it keeps repeating- bilbo thought of his home. he wanted to be back there. not for the last time! its just so childish!
