Could it possibly be Gandalf to Thorin concerning sheltering in a cave on a High Pass?:

Quote:

This won't do at all!" said Thorin. "If we don't get blown off or drowned, or struck by lightning, we shall be picked up by some giant and kicked sky-high for a football.
I am of like mind. It is their luck and our evil fortune that it is not day. But still it may prove the best such as it is. Well, if you know of anywhere better, take us there

a bit grubby, perhaps, but worth a try?

sorry, that's not it. Shall I hint? I think I will: it's a conersation between two warriors.

May it be Eomer to Aragorn in the Helm;s deep (just before thay come out for a sortie?)

Evisse the Blue · 03-29-2004, 05:41 AM

Yes, that's the one. more precisely after Aragorn says: 'Would that day were here and we may ride down upon them like a storm out of the mountains"

Is it Frodo and Sam when first seeing Tom Bombadil?
