Bilbo, in TH, to Thorin and Co. when it's decided he has to be the first down the secret passage.
Sam, in LOTR, to Gollum when he keeps asking Gollum to get things for the coney stew.

I'm sorry but I cant' find a double quote that hasn't been used already. First come, first served can continue...

I read the translation of the books, so I don't know the proper wording for this in English, and I don't know if these quotes really are the same in the original, but I'll try to translate them as closely as possible:
"He never came here anymore in this life" Hint: this is not part of someone's speech. It is said about 2 people and about the same place. Again, I apologise if the quotes are different in the original.

I'm guessing I did translate it wrong, since no one seems to know the answer... I' really sorry about that.
The place is Lothlorien, and the book was talking about Aragorn and Frodo. Whoever wants to go can go.

Oh, Galadriel55, sorry I wasn't around sooner. The translation was close enough, without looking I knew it had to do with Lothlorien and Aragorn at least as one character. You'll have to give us slow people more time to notice the thread.
 I don't have a book with me, so I can't take this up right now.
