Gandalf's words - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

If, I remember correctly (no reference matls. handy), Gandalf's speech about dealing out fate occured either in Rivendel. Or (most likely to my thinking at the moment) when Gandalf tells Frodo of the Rings history way back in the shire.
Peter Jackson seemed to have taken some extensive liberties (IMO) with his interpretation of the books, just to turn them into movies, and this is why you can't find this dialogue in the Moria part of the book.
