What did I tell you? Something’s happening!

[Lostgaeriel]

Sam said "What did I tell you? Something's happening!" to Frodo when they gazed westward and saw and heard the cry of one of the Nazgûl flying back towards the Dark Tower announcing the fall of the Lord of the Ringwraiths. (Of course they didn't know what had happened, but Sam knew from Gorbag & Shagrat's argument that the war wasn't going well for Sauron.)

[HerenIstarion]

Said by whom, about whom, and when?

[Lostgaeriel]

Oooh...that was tricky. I thought at first it was about Aragorn, but then I remembered Théoden. Aragorn said this to Éowyn about Théoden to reassure her as they prepared to go to Isengard. (Though they had to make a stand in Helm's Deep first.) (And of course, Éowyn wasn't really as concerned about Théoden not returning as she was about Aragorn. Poor girl - the guy just had too much charisma. SIGH)

well, may I consider it as an invitation to preceed with it?

No, Eärendil, unless Aragorn also said this, and I've missed it, it was only said by someone else. [Please correct me if I'm wrong by letting me know where/when Aragorn said this.]

No, TolkienGurl, it's not exactly what Théoden said to Éomer. He said, ‘Hail, King of the Mark!’ – ROTK, The Battle of the Pelennor Fields.

Frodo bowed low. ‘I am answered,’ he said, `and I place myself at your service, if that is of any worth to one so high and honourable.’
`It is of great worth,’ said Faramir. ‘And now, do you take this creature, this Sméagol, under your protection?

[gralin musicteeth]

Gimli?

[TolkienGurl]

Yes. Where, though? And to whom?

[Calenoreiel_the_ElfMaiden]

Is it Gandalf Reading that book in Moria????

[TolkienGurl]

No. gralin was right when he said Gimli, but now I want to know who Gimli said it to and where he and the person were at.

[gralin musicteeth]

I think he was talking to Legolas, but I haven't the books right now to look up where they were.

[TolkienGurl]

Yes it was Legolas. I will take pity on you and allow you to go. smilies/wink.gif

PS: They were in Minas Tirith, first talking about the stonework, then discussing a deeper topic.

[gralin musicteeth]

Why thank you.

It is the end
who, where, end of what?

[gralin musicteeth]

yeesh! these quote threads seem to die off pretty fast! holy cow! i'm gonna have to start guessing my own soon!

[hobbitlass]

Frodo saying it to Sam after Gollum and the ring have set off Mt Doom. The end of the quest, end of their lives.

[gralin musicteeth]

are you sure about that? I've got a different one. But if you can verify it, you can have it.

[LePetitChoux]

Actually Frodo says,
Well, this is the end, Sam Gamgee

Does that count? smilies/smile.gif http://www.plauder-smilies.de/tiere/grommit.gif

[gralin musicteeth]

In the one I have the person says "It is the end." nice try though.

[ November 19, 2002: Message edited by: gralin musicteeth ]

[Legolas]

'It is the end,' said Gandalf. 'Let us go.'

Gandalf, at Orthanc, the end of the present debate.

[gralin musicteeth]

argh!!! you are getting all of my quotes!!! well don't just stand there! post another one!!! smilies/wink.gif

[Legolas]

Off you go

[Eärendil]

Um...I have no idea..Merry?

[Legolas]

No

[Beren87]

Hermmm now, Pippin?

[Legolas]

Wasn't a hobbit.

[Eärendil]

Gandalf?

[Finiel]

possibly gandalf...

[Legolas]

Where? To whom? Why?

[mordor136]

could it be gandalf talking to the hobbits when he leaves to meet bombidail

[Beren87]

It was Gandalf in Moria to the Fellowship telling them to go as he would go back to put a spell on the door. Wew, that one was difficult.

[ December 04, 2002: Message edited by: Beren87 ]

[Legolas]

Yes! Another possible answer was Ugluk in The Two Towers

[Beren87]

It is not cold

Kinda difficult I suppose, because thats only half of it.

[Beren87]

No ones even going to try? Surely its no harder than the last one.

[Legolas]

Frodo speaking of his shoulder to Gandalf in the House of Elrond.

[Beren87]

LOVELY! You are entirely completely absolutely and incredibly correct.

[Legolas]

I will ... for who would lie idle when the king has returned?

[Manardariel]

Faramir. Houses of healing. Oh, and BTW, hi!

[-Imrahil-]

Welcome to the downs.

And I "believe" you are correct. Don't quote me though smilies/tongue.gif

[ December 11, 2002: Message edited by: -Imrahil- ]

[Legolas]

You are correct.

[Manardariel]

OK! Here I go.... who said...
No need to try

[Beren87]

Pippin to Merry about untieing themselves in TTT.

[Manardariel]

Yup! Your Turn

[Beren87]

WOOHOO! *does happy dance*

Third time pays for all

[Thengise Greenleaf of Mirkwood]

I don't think this is right, becuase it's the same thing yet worded differently, but could it be Gwaihir to Gandalf?

[Beren87]

Good guess, but unfortunatly no it's not.

[Manardariel]

Again, hobbit-ish. Sam? Frodo?

[Beren87]

Yes! it twas Sam to Gollum.

Really people, try and attempt to actually find the quote. Simply guessing every person in ME until you get it right emliminates the fun in this game.

[ December 14, 2002: Message edited by: Beren87 ]

[Manardariel]

I´m trying!! Ok, who said...

I will add a word of advice...

[Beren87]

I was just reminding people, no need to get hasty.

It twas Boromir to the council.

[Manardariel]

Almost!

[Beren87]

Oh I'm an idiot, It twas Boromir about going over the Cahadras saying how he was used to journeys in high places.

[Manardariel]

There ya go!

[Beren87]

The king stays or comes at his own will

[TolkienGurl]

That would be Aragorn to the Orc and Wild-men army at Helm's Deep concerning Theoden.

[Beren87]

*bows* you are correct my dear.

[TolkienGurl]

Thank you Beren87. I just read that part last night! smilies/biggrin.gif

'Then let us avenge it, ere we speak of it!'

Who said it?
To whom?
Avenge what?

[ December 23, 2002: Message edited by: TolkienGurl ]

[Beren87]

Aragorn to Eomer, to avenge the "much loss and sorrow" brought in the battle front of Minas Tirith.

[TolkienGurl]

Correct! Proceed. smilies/smile.gif

[Beren87]

"As I have begun, so I will go on"

[Manardariel]

Aragorn or Theoden.

[Beren87]

Yes, but why? and to whom?

[Manardariel]

Aragorn, to Imrahil, Eomer and Gandalf, during the last debate.
edit: why? I don´t get what you mean by "why?". They´re debating how to save ME, is that what you wanted to hear?

[ December 26, 2002: Message edited by: Manardariel ]

[Beren87]

Yes you are correct! When you answer a quote question, it is neccesary to put info information so that it is known that you have actually found the quote and are not guessing.

[ December 27, 2002: Message edited by: Beren87 ]

[Manardariel]

Oh, OK.

Who said....

Now we shall see better.

[ December 27, 2002: Message edited by: Manardariel ]

[Beren87]

Bergil said that because Pippin got him past the gate so that they could see the incoming soldiers.

[Manardariel]

You´re correct. What else is new??? smilies/wink.gif

[Beren87]

Lovely!

But I hope I do get back some day

[Bruce MacCulloch]

Sam to Frodo after seeing the Shire in Galadriel's mirror.

[Beren87]

That would most certainly be correct Bruce.

[Bruce MacCulloch]

just a bit of nonsense

[Beren87]

Sam to Merry about his song.

[Bruce MacCulloch]

Close enough, I'll let you have it. smilies/tongue.gif

[ January 04, 2003: Message edited by: Bruce MacCulloch ]

[Beren87]

Thank you!

Then you must go. I must stay here anyway

[Russandol]

Shagrat to Snaga in the Tower of Cirith Ungol after his disagreement with Gorbag.

[Beren87]

Correct, as seemingly usual, Mat!

[Russandol]

That won't do at all!

[Bruce MacCulloch]

Merry, upon hearing that he is to return to the Shire instead of continuing on with Frodo.

[Russandol]

Close enough Bruce for me to pass the baton.

T'was Meriadoc's outburst at being informed he was off to Minas Tirth with Boromir during the Breaking Of The Fellowship.

[Bruce MacCulloch]

Ach! An inaccuracy! The shame! The horror! smilies/eek.gif ... Oh well.
Stay where you are!

[Russandol]

That was a stinker! I virtually speed-read the entire book .. smilies/eek.gif

Gandalf to the company of Rohan, Legolas, Gimli and Aragorn at the passing of the Huorn-dark.

[Bruce MacCulloch]

I almost had you that time, Master Heathertoes! Curses! Foiled again!

Your turn.

[Russandol]

Too simple for a learned lore-master in these suspicious days but here we go ...

And we've got to look out.

[Bruce MacCulloch]

Gorbag to Shagrat.

[Russandol]

Aye, Gorby to Shaggy it most certainly was.

Your turn Master MacCulloch

[Bruce MacCulloch]

May the third time prove the best!

[ January 10, 2003: Message edited by: Bruce MacCulloch ]

[Beren87]

Frodo to Smeagol, "third time" was being in their power and not hurting them.

[Bruce MacCulloch]

Your turn, Beren.

[Beren87]

Allritey then:

Still we have to try

[Dondagnirion]

That would be Sam to Frodo when Frodo's strength was almost gone nearing the end of their journey near the Mountain of Doom (yet too far away for Frodo I bet).

Dondagnirion
"He who cannot cast away a treasure at need is in fetters." - Aragorn

[Beren87]

Aye, your turn!

[Dondagnirion]

Thankee Beren.

"But their tolls are high."

Dondagnirion
"He who cannot cast away a treasure at need is in fetters." - Aragorn

[alaklondewen]

Gloin said this to Frodo in the house of Elrond. He was speaking of the Beornings.

[Dondagnirion]

Right you are, go ahead.

Dondagnirion
"He who cannot cast away a treasure at need is in fetters."

[alaklondewen]

Thank You.

Despair, or folly?

[Beren87]

Gandalf to Erestor at the council of Elrond.

[alaklondewen]

You are certainly right. You're turn. smilies/smile.gif

[Beren87]

Lovely,

Your words bring good counsel

[Dondagnirion]

Imrahil to Aragorn when they were just oustide Minas Tirith planning an attack on Mordor to distract Sauron from Frodo and Sam.

Dondagnirion
"He who cannot cast a treasure away at need is in fetters." - Aragorn

[Beren87]

Nope, not exactly. Wrong book as a matter of fact.

[Manardariel]

Eomer to Gandalf in Meduseld
or
Theoden to Aragorn during
Helms Deep

[Beren87]

Hmm, again, neither are correct.

[Bruce MacCulloch]

Aragorn to Gimli in Lothlorien, after Gimli's comment about trees being safer than the ground.

[Beren87]

Correct Master Bruce! I was hoping someone would get it soon.

[Bruce MacCulloch]

Shall we shoot?

[Aratlithiel]

Faramir to Frodo RE: Gollum - The Forbidden Pool.

[eleanor_niphredil]

Faramir to Frodo, asking if they should shoot gollum or not when he is looking for fish in the forbidden pool.

[Bruce MacCulloch]

You are both correct, but the credit for correct answer must go to Lostgaeriel, who sent me a PM before either of you answered.

From Lostgaeriel:
Hi Bruce!
I'm getting nasty error messages when I try to reply to this thread. So for now, I'm answering privately.

'Shall we shoot?'

That's Faramir to Frodo at the Forbidden Pool - regarding Gollum.

[Lostgaeriel]

Aratlithiel and eleanor_niphredil:

I'm sorry about answering by PM, but I couldn't post a reply at all. I kept trying, hoping I could post before someone else did. But I guess accepting a PM in cases such as these is at the discretion of the quote-poser.

So here's the next quote.

'...the strong arms of the Rohirrim would be better within his walls than without.’

[Aragorn]

Gandalf to Aragorn before the battle of Helm's Deep.

[Lostgaeriel]

Nooo, it wasn't Gandalf to Aragorn. Read the quote more carefully.

Welcome to the Downs, Aragorn. *swoons at the sight of him*

[ January 30, 2003: Message edited by: Lostgaeriel ]

[Dondagnirion]

Could it be Gandalf to Theoden about Helms Deep?

Dondagnirion
"He who cannot cast away a tresure at need is in fetters." - Aragorn

[Lostgaeriel]

Nope. It wasn't Gandalf to Théoden, either. It wasn't Gandalf at all. Get off the Helm's Deep train of thought - that will help.

[Beren87]

Aye, that one took a bit of searching. It was Hirgon to Theoden as the call for aid was delivered.

[Lostgaeriel]

Yes! Beren87 got it. It was indeed Hirgon, carrying the Red Arrow. (ROTK Muster of Rohan) I had thought that 'walls' was a good clue to Minas Tirith but it stumped a couple of people. Your turn.

[Beren87]

It was a good clue, good job.

It shows you up

[Bruce MacCulloch]

Gollum referring to the Yellow Face

[Beren87]

That it is.

[Bruce MacCulloch]

... it seems clear to me ...

[Dondagnirion]

That would be Gandalf about the Palantir being his downfall talking about "how it seemed clear to him" that he made contact with Sauron when using it and that caused his downfall, e.t.c.

Dondagnirion
"He who cannot cast a treasure away at need is in fetters." - Aragorn

[Bruce MacCulloch]

Nope

[Beren87]

It was Gandalf recounting his little "adventure" in Bree with the Nazgul.
