No, the burned hand teaches best. After that advice about the fire goes to the heart.

[Eowyn of Ithilien]

Gandalf re. Pippin and the Palantir

[Joy]

Correct Eowyn!

[Eowyn of Ithilien]

"...falling asleep again."

[Gayalondiel]

Frodo, when Pippin/Merry calls their journey 'like a dream that has slowly faded'

[Eowyn of Ithilien]

[Eowyn of Ithilien]

usually if you copy your message and keep going back and pressing post...eek best to find someone technical!!!!
a quote, a quote, my kingdom for a quote
"hrooom hmmmm"
*I hope I got that right!*

[Androndo the Thoughtfull]

A guess would be Treebeard or some other ent...

[Eowyn of Ithilien]

sounds 'bout right to me smilies/smile.gif

[Androndo the Thoughtfull]

*** Opening a random place in the second or 3rd book ***... And the winner is:

I saw
things that frightened me.

[Bruce MacCulloch]

Pippin to Gandalf, describing what he saw in the Palantir.

[Androndo the Thoughtfull]

and by luck (he was born
with a good share of it) he guessed more or less right

[Bruce MacCulloch]

No, no! Wait!
I'm looking for the specific circumstances here.

[ArwenBaggins]

*forget it.....* herez a quote:

Not he!
if no1 answerz,i dont care..... smilies/biggrin.gif

[Bruce MacCulloch]

Arwen, you should answer the last one before posting a new quote. You know that!!

[ February 18, 2002: Message edited by: Bruce MacCulloch ]

[Joy]

To answer the first one posted by Androndo
and by luck (he was born with a good share of it) he guessed more or rightI should guess, and I hope to guess more or right smilies/wink.gif, that it is a quote regarding Sam in guessing where Frodo went after Borimir tried to take the ring.

As for the others, Ihave no guess at this time. If I am right, I will let my turn pass.

[Bruce MacCulloch]

Joy, while that post of Androndo's was indeed a quote, it was not, however, a question on this thread. He was acknowledging my turn. So, since several people posted since the ACTUAL question was asked, I'll repost the quote here. smilies/mad.gif No, no! Wait! Now that (hopefully) this thread is back to where it was, I'm looking for the specific circumstances here.

[Mat_Heathertoes]

'No, no! Wait!' Frodo called back, more strongly now, 'I shall be better soon, I feel better already. Wait! You can't do anything without a rope.'

Ninnyhammers! Noodles!

smilies/evil.gif

[Bruce MacCulloch]

Very nice, Mr. Heathertoes! Not bad for a Bree-man. smilies/tongue.gif

[Mat_Heathertoes]

Thank-you Mr MacCulloch, for your kind words. Now here's a tricksy one for you...

"You seem to know a lot,"

[Bruce MacCulloch]

Sam to Gollum, "him" being Sauron, when Gollum was telling them about Cirith Ungol.

[Mat_Heathertoes]

Yes, there is that instance. But that's part of the sentence

"You seem to know a lot about what He's doing and thinking," said Sam.

Now what I'm after is a complete sentence someplace else.

[Vilya Elathelas of Rivendell]

and by luck (he was born
with a good share of it) he guessed more or less right

I don't know the one about sam, but I know this one (I hope.)

IT's about Bilbo in the Hobbit.

The Sam one...ugh...sam to faramir maybe???

[Mat_Heathertoes]

'You seem to know a lot,'

Was actually Uglúk to Grishnákh regarding the Nazgûl.

As Bruce correctly identified a copy-cat quote I am pleased to defer to him for the next one

[Bruce MacCulloch]

Why, thank you, Mat!
I would not have this world end now ...

[Mat_Heathertoes]

Faramir to Eowyn upon the walls of Minas Tirith just before the fall of the Barad-Dur.

[Bruce MacCulloch]

All yours, Master Heathertoes!

[Mat_Heathertoes]

'And other armies will come'..

Who said this and where were they?

[ February 27, 2002: Message edited by: Mat_Heathertoes ]

[ArwenBaggins]

im this topic starter and i havent had a chance 2 talk 4ever.......
herez a qoute, and if u dont answer me, i will understand....... smilies/confused.gif
Let the Orcs lie. The morning may bring new counsel.
itz farely easy,but itz the first thing that popped into my head! smilies/wink.gif

[Mat_Heathertoes]

Gandalf to the men of the Hornburg concerning the large pile of dead orcs that lay in the coomb.

[Legolas]

To the previous quote...Frodo, the armies of Mordor.

[Fallen King of Angmar]

I'll wager I could stand you on your head or lay you on your back.

[merlilot]

Bergil to Pippin or vice versa. I think it is Bergil speaking, but they said similar things...so...

[Legolas]

Fallen King of Angmar

It wasn't your turn. In three days, if no one has confirmed the answer to a quote but one knows they are right, they may proceed. I was waiting.

Anyway, since you've chosen to continue on without me, I'll take back over.

Who said
Depart, or not one of you will be spared. Not one will be left alive to take back tidings to the North. You do not know your peril.
?

[charly]

I´m prettty sure it´s a hobbit.... might be Pip or Merry. And isn´t he talking to Bill Ferny??

[Legolas]

No, it isn't a hobbit.

[TolkienGurl]

Aragorn to the orcs seiging Helm's Deep!

[ October 10, 2002: Message edited by: TolkienGurl ]

[Legolas]

Correct, Tolkien Gurl.

[TolkienGurl]

Et Earello Endorenna utulien. Sinome maruvan ar Hildinyar tenn' Ambar-metta!

This person was quoting another from long ago. Who said it first, and who was quoting him?

I don't know how to do the little dots above the 'a' in Earello and the ` above the second 'u' in utulien. smilies/confused.gif Can someone help me?

[ October 18, 2002: Message edited by: TolkienGurl ]

[Morgoth Bauglir]

maybe aragorn quoting isildur?

im sure its wrong but who cares smilies/smile.gif

[TolkienGurl]

nope.

[Telchar]

Very Close M B - it's Aragorn quoting Elendil, Isildurs father

[TolkienGurl]

Yup. Sorry it took me so long to reply. I've gotten into to many discussions at once! AAAGGGHHH! ( smilies/biggrin.gif)

[Telchar]

It is clad in a forest of dark fir, where the trees strive one against another and their branches rot and wither. In the midst upon a stony height stands Dol Guldur, where long the hidden Enemy had his dwelling.

[Legolas]

Haldir to the Fellowship of the Ring sans Gandalf in Lórien, he's speaking of Southern Mirkwood.

I was thinking this wasn't in the second or third books, but it actually is in the real second book as designated by Tolkien (being in the second half of Fellowship of the Ring).

[ October 31, 2002: Message edited by: Legalos ]

[Telchar]

Yes sir smilies/smile.gif

[Legolas]

The time of my thought is my own to spend.

[Telchar]

Dain Ironfoot to the messenger from Mordor

[Legolas]

Yep.

[Telchar]

Don't try!

[Beren87]

Would that be the entire qoute, or is it enclosed in a sentance?

[Telchar]

The sayer adds something but its too easy if I say that - lol

[Beren87]

Is it Shagrat when talking to Gorbag? Saying "
"Don't try and teach me my job."

[gralin musicteeth]

Was it Aragorn talking to Frodo about the ring? i seem to remember something about how it would break him or something.

[Telchar]

nope - HINT: it was said in Rivendell...

[gralin musicteeth]

are you sure it's in the 2nd or 3rd book? and are we all talking about the same 2nd or 3rd book? wasn't that Dain Ironfoot one in FoTR? I'm all confuzzled.

[ November 11, 2002: Message edited by: gralin musicteeth ]

[TolkienGurl]

FOTR is books 1 and 2.
TTT is 3 and 4.
ROTK is 5 and 6.

So the quote is in the second part of FOTR: hence 2nd "book". smilies/biggrin.gif

[ November 11, 2002: Message edited by: TolkienGurl ]

[gralin musicteeth]

please excuse my ignorance. *ducks from the sheep and wild boar that are coming her way* i understand and am confuzzled no more! yaaay! smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif

[gralin musicteeth]

[Telchar]

[gralin musicteeth]

Ah, it is as I said

[hobbitlass]

A hint, please? In book 2 or book 3?

[gralin musicteeth]

Book 2

[Morgoth Bauglir]

gandalf?

[gralin musicteeth]

nope!

[Legolas]

Who? Gimli
What? "The ill will of Caradhras"
Where? Redhorn Pass

[gralin musicteeth]

Correct! quote on Legalos

[Legolas]

It will be drier above.

Who to whom? Where is 'above'?

[ November 20, 2002: Message edited by: Legalos ]

[gralin musicteeth]

AHA!!! finally found it!! It was Gimli to Gamling the Old at Helm's Deep. "above" is on the wall.

[Legolas]

Yes! I was beginning to wonder if anyone was out there.

[-Imrahil-]

Gralin going to post?

[gralin musicteeth]

Yes, gralin is going to post! whahahahaha!
Let us light a fire

[Beren87]

Gimli as the three camped under a tree.

[ December 10, 2002: Message edited by: Beren87 ]

[Beren87]

Am I correct gralin?

[TolkienGurl]

You are right, Beren.
Gimli shivered. They had brought only one blanket apiece. 'Let us light a fire,' he said. 'I care no longer for the danger. Let the Orcs come as thick as summer-moths round a candle!' Perhaps gralin is busy elsewhere? I'm pretty sure you may go. It's been a while! smilies/smile.gif

[Beren87]

Well, it had been 7 days since he posted the question, and I am correct, so yes I'll just go.

Let me go, let me go!

[tangerine]

hmmm....is it wormtongue?

[Manardariel]

Possibly Gollum....

[Nenya]

I think it's Gríma, too: to Treebeard, talking about going to Orthanc.

[TolkienGurl]

You guys are looking these up, right? That's the point... Then you don't have to guess! smilies/smile.gif (I'm not trying to lecture you or anything!)

Oi Beren! Where are you? We have some guesses here! smilies/biggrin.gif

And, if you want to be technical smilies/rolleyes.gif, Pippin was actually quoting Wormtongue.

[ December 29, 2002: Message edited by: TolkienGurl ]

[Beren87]

So sorry Tolkiengurl, the accursed parents...

Yes well, it was Pippin quoteing so Tolkiengurl gets it (as always). smilies/biggrin.gif

[Nenya]

Stupid ol' me, of course it was Pippin!
*bangs her head against the wall*

[TolkienGurl]

Beren, I totally understand "the accursed parents" thing! smilies/rolleyes.gif Hey, are you picking on me? smilies/tongue.gif

That is easy to read.

Who
To whom
What is "that"

[ December 30, 2002: Message edited by: TolkienGurl ]

[Manardariel]

Gandalf?
Frodo?
Just Kidding!! No need to worry, Tolkiengurl, I did get your "lecture". smilies/wink.gif
Anyway, that is: Aragorn speaking to Legolas&Gimli about footprints on the ground. TTT, "The Riders of Rohan"

[TolkienGurl]

What? Lecture? Moi? smilies/wink.gif I seriously didn't mean to sound harsh, or "dictatorish." Nor am I a Moderator. I was just trying to clear up a few gray areas. smilies/biggrin.gif

I just reread "The Riders of Rohan" to see if this quote was in there also, but (unless my eyes deceive me) it is not, as that is not where I found the quote. Great guess, though. It does sound like what you thought! Try again! smilies/tongue.gif

~TolkienGurl

[Nurumaiel]

I'm just making a wild guess because I don't have my books with me, so here it is...

Was it Gimli speaking of Saruman to Theoden, Gandalf, etc.?

I'm almost positive that's wrong but I thought I'd guess anyhow.

~Nurumaiel

[TolkienGurl]

You have the speaker (Gimli) correct, but that's not who he's speaking to and what "that" is. Hurry and try before anyone else gets here! I wouldn't know who to tell to go if someone got the other half right! smilies/smile.gif

[Beren87]

I do sooo hate to do this, but it was Gimli speaking of the runes on the slain orc's helms.

[TolkienGurl]

Good job, Beren! There's one more piece to the puzzle. Now, whom was he speaking to?

[ January 03, 2003: Message edited by: TolkienGurl ]

[Nurumaiel]

He was speaking to Legolas and Aragorn. "S for Sauron." Is that not correct?

~Nurumaiel

[TolkienGurl]

Good job, Nurumaiel! You answered 2 of the three, so you can go. smilies/smile.gif

[Nurumaiel]

Time to get up and make yourself presentable

Who said it?
Who did he/she say it to?

Hint: It's in ROTK.

[Beren87]

Was it Gandalf to Pippin?

[Dondagnirion]

I am pretty sure that it was Gandalf to Frodo and Sam just before the ceremony where they were honored for destroying the ring at the end of ROTK. Please tell me if I am wrong.

Dondagnirion
"...and Faenor rose and cursed Melkor, naming him Morgoth, the black foe of the world.."

[Nurumaiel]

Beren87 got it! Gandalf to Pippin it was. Your turn. smilies/biggrin.gif

[Beren87]

Ahh, lovely.

Where can I find him?

[gralin musicteeth]

Gandalf to Merry at Isengard?

[ January 10, 2003: Message edited by: gralin musicteeth ]

[Beren87]

Nope, thats not it.

[Manardariel]

Gandalf to a guard in Minas Tirith, meaning tha "he" is Denethor?

[Beren87]

Right place, wrong everything else.

[Dondagnirion]

I think its Pippin to a guard looking for Gandalf in Minas Tirith perhaps?

Dondagnirion
"One who can not cast a treasure away at need is in fetters." - Aragorn

[NZ Ringbearer]

Isn't it Eowyn to the Warden of the Houses of healing? The 'him' is Famamir, isn't it?

[Dondagnirion]

I think you may be right on that one, I should have thought of that.

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

[Beren87]

NZ Ringbearer, you are correct, your turn to ask a question.

Dondagnirion, please try and refrain from "no point" posts such as your last one, they really don't add to the game.

[NZ Ringbearer]

Thanks. Now, all you Quotesters...

'Much must be risked in war'

Who was that?

[Manardariel]

Gandalf, to King Theoden in Edoras, trying to convince him to go to war.

[NZ Ringbearer]

Nope.....

HINT: its in ROTK smilies/biggrin.gif

[Legolas]

Eh...it shouldn't be from The Return of the King.

2nd/3rd books = second half of The Fellowship of the Ring and first half of The Two Towers.

The Lord of the Rings is split up into six books...

[Beren87]

Nein Legolas, the game has been played as TTT and Rotk, (the second third full books).

[hobbitlass]

Wait, I too, thought it to be last half of Fellowship and first half of Two Towers.

[Manardariel]

So did I.... about the qoute, is Gandalf correct? Because if he´s not speaking to Theoden, maybe it´s Denethor?

[Beren87]

Hmm, go back and read the previous posts of this topic, especially those done by Mat and Bruce and you will find quote from Rotk. So the second and third books are the actual "books" not the subdivisions.

[NZ Ringbearer]

Its not GANDALF who's speaking... smilies/wink.gif

[Finiel]

Aragorn to Prince Imrahil

or

Gandalf to Aragorn

[Beren87]

Denethor to the Prince and Faramir talking about not being able to cover all flanks.

[NZ Ringbearer]

Nice one, Beren87!!!

Your turn... smilies/biggrin.gif

[Beren87]

Allritey then:

It sounds very right and proper

[NZ Ringbearer]

I'm just guessing...Pippin? smilies/rolleyes.gif

[Beren87]

Nope, thats not it.

[Manardariel]

It most definatly is a hobbbit... the gaffer maybe?

[Beren87]

It's not a hobbit as a matter of fact.

[Manardariel]

Oh. Well. *blush*
But it sounds so hobbit-ish......

[Beren87]

Hmm, come to think of it it does sound hobbitish in nature, but it isn't.

[Entmoot]

im guessing maybe treebeard.. but if thats not it would u please give a hint?

[Beren87]

Welcome Entmoot! Quite a good guess, because it is! I'll give it to you this time, but however in the future you must actually find the quote and give enough information in your answer that shows you know who it was said by, to whom, and where.

[Entmoot]

Thankyou Beren87, i apologise and will answer more correctly next time.Here is one.
Mercy, lord! an easy one.

[Pallando B.C]

Wormtounge, when Theoden banished him from Rohan.

[Entmoot]

Quite right. Well done. Your turn pallando B.C

[Pallando B.C]

Let's see...

Haven't you any lock-ups down below?

[Russandol]

For some reason I was poring through ROTK thinking it was a ruffianly sounding quote smilies/confused.gif

.... and in a moment of clarity I remembered it's actually Gorbag to Shagrat regarding their prisoner.

[Aratlithiel]

Gorbag to Shagrat discussing where they were going to put a captured Frodo. I'd have to look it up, but I'm pretty sure it's in The Choices of Master Samwise.

[Aratlithiel]

Whoops, Russandol, didn't mean to step on your toes. I'm still on my first cup of coffee & missed your second sentence. Need those A Clockwork Orange-style eyelid propper-uppers.

[Pallando B.C]

Sorry, Aratlithiel but I will take Russandol's answer, since he was first.

[Russandol]

Thanks Pallando.

Where be you a-going?

[eleanor_niphredil]

um, sorry for jumping in, but I know this one. Its Lobelia to one of the ruffians in the scouring of the shire.

[ January 23, 2003: Message edited by: eleanor_niphredil ]

[Aratlithiel]

Thank God you did, eleanor! This one's been driving me crazy since yesterday!!

[ January 23, 2003: Message edited by: Aratlithiel ]

[Russandol]

See Eleanor, you perform a valuable service for others when you answer these questions smilies/wink.gif

Your turn to torment .....

[eleanor_niphredil]

And torment I will.

"make it short, and then you wont have to cut it short before you use it"

[Aratlithiel]

Sam quoting The Gaffer to Frodo RE: naming his first-born - The Grey Havens.

[eleanor_niphredil]

Right you are. Continue.

[Aratlithiel]

This should be an easy one...

We musn't stand here. Make haste!

[Russandol]

Monsieur Smeagol to Monsieur Baggins at the Cross-Roads.

[Aratlithiel]

Oui, oui, Russandol. Your turn, cie vous plez. (Can you tell I wasn't a French major?)

[Russandol]

But things have changed since then.

[Beren87]

Treebeard to Gandalf about letting Saruman go even though Gandalf had told him to keep Saruman inside.

[Russandol]

Quite right Erchamion, your go.

[Beren87]

Hmm...Erchamion?

And what about your companions?

[NZ Ringbearer]

Ummmmmm...Faramir?

[Beren87]

Nope, thats not it.

[eleanor_niphredil]

Gimli to Merry and Pippin at the gate of Isengard.

[Beren87]

Eleanor has it!

[eleanor_niphredil]

cool

I fear it may be so with mine

[Dondagnirion]

I dont know about anyone else but I need a hint Eleanor.

Dondagnirion
"There is no spoon."

[Estanesse]

Frodo to Gandalf on the way back from Gondor

[Manardariel]

Revising this beautiful game....

The THREAD MUST GO ON! smilies/smile.gif

Guess this: Then it was kindly done

[Orofaniel]

Faramir?

[Manardariel]

Finally! Someone!

but you aren´t correct...

[Orofaniel]

hm..... Do you think I could get a hint? smilies/wink.gif

[gilraën]

Eowyn to Aragorn?

[Manardariel]

*sighes* I knew this would happen sooner or later...yes, gilraen, you go!

[gilraën]

What would happen?

Or I see that it might be so.

[Orofaniel]

Frodo or Sam?

[gilraën]

Neither, sorry smilies/smile.gif

[Orofaniel]

Could it be Gandalf?

[ June 18, 2003: Message edited by: Orofaniel ]

[Manardariel]

Aragorn to Eowyn?

Faramir to Eowyn?

[gilraën]

It was Faramir who said it, but not to Eowyn smilies/smile.gif

[Arvedui III]

Faramir to Gandalf?

[gilraën]

No, but a member of the Fellowship.

[Orofaniel]

Faramir to Sam or Frodo then?

[gilraën]

Yes to both of them actually smilies/smile.gif

[Orofaniel]

=)

Here is the next quote:
I guess what it'll be like

smilies/biggrin.gif Good Luck!

[Manardariel]

Pippin to Bergil, or vice-versa? smilies/biggrin.gif

[Orofaniel]

Nope! smilies/smile.gif sorry that's not correct....

[Beren87]

Sam to Frodo! (it's nearly always Sam to Frodo or vice-versa on this topic). They were talking about going down into the valley.

[Orofaniel]

It was Sam to Frodo..... Your up! smilies/smile.gif

[Beren87]

How did you do it?

[Manardariel]

guessing the obvious, Frodo to Sam? smilies/wink.gif

No, seriously, maybe Pippin to Gandalf, or someone (ok, Aragorn, Legsy, Gimli, Merry or Pippin) when they´re all talking at Isengard?

[gilraën]

Pippin to Aragorn about the Corsair ships?
