Now she is dead, you say. And yet worse? What lie have you begotten in your malice, club-foot? Would you slay us then with foul words, since you can wield no other weapon?

Actually it was Turin, but otherwise spot-on. :)

PS: Shouldn't we make a Palantír of Fortune! Part 2? This thread takes painfully long to load... :rolleyes:

Being a mortal Quotable Quotes Thread, it cannot be admitted to Elvenhome, but I'm sure the mods will find a honourable place for it to sleep the long sleep and not be forgotten, while its descendant governs the fortunes of us all.

There used to be more than one thread - we were up to part 3 when they made the switch to vBulletin at which point the loading time apparently became much less of an issue. But if you (and others?) are having problems with it, maybe it might be worth it...

It doesn't take too long to load for me. Are you on dial-up Rune? That might explain it.

S please.

Wow Kath, you realy got me confused there. . . It is Macalaure that has problems loading it, not me. And no I do not have dial-up.

Rune, one Central European is as good as the other. ;)
Maybe I exaggerated a little ( :rolleyes: ), but it does take some second sometimes, even though I'm not on dial-up, too. I just had the idea that the 200th page would be a good time for retirement.

I am sorry it took so long, but I went to bed right after Guinevere passed the thread to me. The next day I thought it was a dream. . . :p
