One of my favourite characters is Gildor, I love his conversation with Frodo, specially this quote:

Quote:
Our paths cross theirs seldom, by chance or purpose. In this meeting there may be more than chance, but the purpose is not clear to me and I fear to say too much.
and about "Do not meddle in the affairs of wizards...", was is not Gildor who said it? and then Frodo replied "They also say do not go to the Elves for counsel, for they will say you both no and yes"?

I love all the poetry in the books, though just in the English version, I don´t like them that much in spanish, I suppose that could be why some people dislike poetry in lotR. My favourite one is "I sit beside the fire", and Galadriel words to Legolas, when she tells him to beware of the Sea

I also like when Legolas says in RotK something like :

Quote:
My people and I shall go there(or something like that), and then it shall be blessed for a while. For a while: a month, a life, a hundred years of Men! But Anduin is near, and Anduin leads down to the Sea. To the Sea!
I think it reflects very well what time means for Elves, as well as Legolas´s desire to leave Middle Earth
