I thought about guessing that, but I thought I remembered him saying "I feel it in my heart of hearts" in the book, and that the bones line was from the movie. Oh well.

That is Bilbo concerning men and hobbits. And welcome to the downs Ruitha!

No it wasn't. What he said in the movie was...

Quote:

"I am old Gandalf. I know I don't look it, but I've begun to feel it in my heart.
But I'm pretty sure that he said heart of hearts in the book so where did the I feel it in my bones come from? [img]smilies/confused.gif[/img]

Here's what the book says in that part of the story...
Quote:

"I feel I need a holiday, a very long holiday, as I have told you before. Probably a permanent holiday: I don't expect I shall return. In fact, I don't mean to, and I have made all arrangements.
'I am old Gandalf. I don't look it, but I am beginning to feel it in my heart of hearts. Well-preserved indeed!' he snorted. 'Why, I feel all thin, sort of stretched, if you know what I mean: like butter that has been scraped over too much bread. That can't be right. I need a change, or something.'
So that's not where it came from. I'm remembering a bones line too, but it wasn't there, and it might not have been Bilbo.

GaladrieloftheOlden 05-06-2003 08:00 PM

Then I guess I screwed up, and took it from the movie instead of book [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]

No biggie. Just for future reference, book quotes only on this thread, k? [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

(but who knows, maybe somebody somewhere in FOTR says the bones line, so you can pretend you did it right [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Okay [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] It was only because I couldn't find my book, so I had to use the internet, and it said that was a book quote [img]smilies/mad.gif[/img] [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] Sorry [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]

Gandalf to Frodo? Aragorn to Frodo? (Back to the technique of almost wild-guessing [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] )

~Menelien

Firondoiel 05-07-2003 12:07 PM

Nope, sorry.

GaladrieloftheOlden 05-07-2003 03:14 PM

Is it another Bombadil one? [img]smilies/confused.gif[/img] I'm just trying to figure out who that sounds like...

~Menelien

Firondoiel 05-07-2003 03:26 PM

Nope.

GaladrieloftheOlden 05-09-2003 05:44 AM

Could be Frodo?

~Menelien

Firondoiel 05-09-2003 11:34 AM

No it's not. Sorry.

GaladrieloftheOlden 05-09-2003 06:54 PM

Uhh... Gandalf to Bilbo? Or could it be Elrond? (I'm really guessing now...)

~Menelien

Firondoiel 05-09-2003 07:52 PM

Still not right.

GaladrieloftheOlden 05-09-2003 08:11 PM

@#$! What other characters are there??? Umm... Maggot?

~Menelien

Ruitha 05-10-2003 05:43 AM

...Galadriel? (Thought I'd try the wild guessing thing too [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] )

GaladrieloftheOlden 05-11-2003 07:49 PM

Gwaihir to Gandalf as he carried him away from Orthanc, when Gandalf asked him how far he could carry him.

~Menelien

Sounds like that is Strider to me, not entirely shure though.
