Gimli to Legolas about the fickleness of Men.

Sorry, Evisse, that guess is wrong!
But I have to apologize, this quote isn't said by anyone, it's just in the narrative...
Shall I tell you where it is from, or would you like to take another guess?

Evisse the Blue · 01-16-2011, 11:51 AM

Yup, I'd like a hint!

Well, actually, by hint I don't rightly know what I mean since if you told me the circumstance or something like that, it would probably give it away....

Is it from Lotr?

No, it's from the Silmarillion.
