Grishnak to Merry and Pippin:

"Untie your legs? I'll untie every string in your bodies. Do you think I can't search you to the bones? Search you! I'll cut you both to quivering shreds."

Correct, of course.
 

Such a pleasant chap, isn't he? ;)

Thanks, Firefoot.

Good, I thought it was just me. (Not that I've done any in the past year!)

'b' please

U!

R,L, B + U added (and a forgotten h :( )

"The/ -orld/ is/ indeed/ -ull/ o-/ -eril/ and/ in/ it/ there/ are/ -any/ dar-/ -la-es/. -ut/ still/ there/ is/ -u-h/ that/ is/ -air/, and/ thou-h/ in/ all/ lands/ lo-e/ is/ no-/ -in-led/ -ith/ -rie-/, it/ -ro-s/ -erha-s/ the/ -reater/."

"The world is indeed full of peril and in it there are many dark places. But still there is much that is fair, and though in all lands love is now mingled with grief, it grows perhaps the greater."

I don't know who said it, though I'll make a guess at Gandalf.

If that's a LotR quote, I think I could shoot myself now. No, my bet is it comes from the Sil, or maybe UT, but I'd guess the Sil. Don't know where, though.

I couldn't find it in LotR, but haven't read the Sil in forever so I couldn't even guess at that!

I'm just bad at finding quotes that aren't in LotR or TH. So many of them can apply to so many different circumstances.

:eek: and I thought it would be too easy to solve! ;)

It is indeed from FotR, good old Haldir speaking to the Fellowship while he's leading them to Cerin Amroth. One of my favourite wisdoms!

Btw, in the movie, Galadriel speaks part of this (but typicall they left out "it grows perhaps the greater", which I think reflects Tolkien's view !)

*bam*

Well that might explain why it seemed so familiar! Am I doing the next one then?

I don't see why you wouldn't be.
