Spiffy! (I love that word)

Quote:

to take vengeance upon Morgoth, and regain what he stole

gilraën · 06-01-2003, 04:02 PM

Galadriel says it to Melian.

Beren87 · 06-01-2003, 04:11 PM

Correct, oh wise word-smith.

gilraën · 06-01-2003, 04:23 PM

Thank-you, I take that as a 'real' compliment coming from you Beren. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

I'll repost my quote from the other thread, I had missed this one first time round. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Quote:

Many are the strange chances of this world,

Guinevere · 06-02-2003, 01:06 AM

I can't resist answering that one... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

"Many are the strange chances of the world," said Mithrandir, "and help oft shall come from the hands of the weak when the Wise falter."

Mithrandir said it to Elrond at the first White Council, in "Of the rings of power"

gilraën · 06-02-2003, 12:10 PM

Correct [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] Your turn.

Guinevere · 06-02-2003, 04:29 PM

Thank you, Gilraën. Now for a new quote...*sigh*.
Seves me right for popping in here, now I had to look through all those pages with the old quotes, so as not to repeat one of them!!

Quote:

For there is but one loyalty from which no man can be absolved in heart for any cause.

gilraën · 06-02-2003, 04:33 PM

Either Amandil says it to Elendil or the other way round, I can't remember which, sorry. I'll look it up if needs be, or if I've got it completely wrong. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Guinevere · 06-03-2003, 09:03 AM

It is Amandil to Elendil,as you first said. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] Your turn again!

gilraën · 06-03-2003, 11:51 AM

Thanks.

Yes [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Guinevere · 06-04-2003, 03:00 AM

Quote:

That I do believe.

gilraën · 06-04-2003, 12:54 PM

Turin to Qwindor?

Guinevere · 06-04-2003, 03:18 PM

Exactly! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

gilraën · 06-04-2003, 03:24 PM

the phantom · 06-08-2003, 01:33 PM

I started reading The Silmarillion to my mother a few days ago, so that quote was fresh in my mind.

Quote:

My mind is now set, lord

gilraën · 06-08-2003, 04:05 PM

I had to check this one in the book, it's Haleth to Caranthir. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

the phantom · 06-08-2003, 04:07 PM

Yes [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Quote:

the law is become less

the phantom · 06-08-2003, 04:58 PM

I don't have my book, but I think that's Maeglin to Hurin and Huor.

gilraën · 06-08-2003, 05:16 PM

Indeed it is [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Your turn.

the phantom · 06-08-2003, 07:16 PM

Thank you [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Quote:

further counsel I cannot give

gilraën · 06-09-2003, 12:13 AM

Huan to Beren.

Quote:

Then for the second time Huan spoke with words; and he counselled Beren, saying: 'From the shadow of death you can no longer save Lúthien, for by her love she is now subject to it. You can turn from your fate and lead her into exile, seeking peace in vain while your life lasts. But if you will not deny your doom, then either Lúthien, being forsaken, must assuredly die alone, or she must with you challenge the fate that lies before you--hopeless, yet not certain. Further counsel I cannot give, nor may I go further on your road. But my heart forebodes that what you find at the Gate I shall myself see. All else is dark to me; yet it may be that our three paths lead back to Doriath, and we may meet before the end.'

Guinevere · 06-09-2003, 02:54 PM

Miriel to Finwë ?

gilraën · 06-09-2003, 04:19 PM

It sure was [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Guinevere · 06-10-2003, 01:54 PM

Thanks!

Quote:

Nonetheless, I will wield it while I may"

gilraën · 06-10-2003, 02:00 PM

It's said about Anglachel. But I can't remember which 'wielder' says it. So I'll guess Turin.

the phantom · 06-10-2003, 06:23 PM

Beleg

Guinevere · 06-11-2003, 02:16 AM

It is about Anglachel, Gilraën, but the Phantom got the right "wielder": it was indeed Beleg, speaking to Melian when she warned him about the sword.

Your turn, Phantom! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

the phantom · 06-11-2003, 02:37 PM

I kind of feel bad about that one, Gil. [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]

Quote:

is it not made void

(don't have my book now, wording may be teensy bit off, but hope it's right)

gilraën · 06-11-2003, 04:33 PM

Don't feel bad, I didn't check it, trusting to memory. I'll live to guess another time [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

I checked this time though.

Quote:

Yet Maglor still held back, saying: 'If Manwë and Varda themselves deny the fulfilment of an oath to which we named them in witness, is it not made void?'

the phantom · 06-11-2003, 10:09 PM

good job [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

gilraën · 06-12-2003, 12:32 AM

Thank you [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Quote:

But what shall I do now, so that thou be not angry with me for ever?

the phantom · 06-12-2003, 06:16 AM

Aule to Iluvatar
