"I would cut off your head, dwarf, if it stood but a little higher from the ground. "
Eomer to that pesky son of Gloin, who in his turn was one of the pesky
participants in a rather Unexpected Party.
Btw, the quote might also be used by Eomer to PJ regarding his scene
reductions in the movies.
Inziladun
01-17-2009, 10:52 AM
Close enough, I guess, though the actual quote runs thus:
I would cut off your head, beard and all, Master Dwarf, if it stood but a little higher from the ground.
I have to give it to you, since you seem to share my disdain for the movies. ;)
Take it away.
Tuor in Gondolin
01-17-2009, 02:28 PM
Thanks. I really shouldn't be too lazy to check
quotes in books.
Btw, I do think PJ and friends did well in FOTR. The other two.....

This is indeed a lovely quote, Tuor!
"Yet fairest of all are the willows of Nan-Tathren, pale green, or silver in the wind, and the rustle of their innumerable leaves is a spell of music"
Voronwë describing his journey from Gondolin to the Sea.
Tuor in Gondolin
02-06-2009, 04:39 PM
Yep. I thought you'd get it with
Nan-Tathren becoming
evident.
Talk about the Valar being tough on a
guy, they could have eased up a bit
on Voronwe. :)
Guinevere
02-09-2009, 02:05 PM
Sorry for the delay! :(
I think Voronwë's account is very touching! It is one of the rare occasions where an elf reveals some of his private thoughts and feelings.

'Hail, Nienor, daughter of Húrin. We meet again ere the end. I give thee joy that thou hast found thy brother at last. And now thou shalt know him: a stabber in the dark, treacherous to foes, faithless to friends, and a curse unto his kin, Túrin son of Húrin! But the worst of all his deeds thou shalt feel in thyself.'
