"'Get you gone, and fly!' cried Beren; 'for here is a fire that shall consume you, and all evil things.'" - The Silmarillion, "Of Beren and Luthien"

I actually deciphered that before I figured out where it came from. Good quote! :)

Guinevere 04-07-2009 01:05 PM

Well done, Beregond! :)

Beregond 04-07-2009 01:18 PM

Thank you. :)

Haven't seen you in a while, Beregond. Good way to announce your return.

Thanks! [cliche]I've been really busy.[\cliche] It's true though. :(


You've asked for I's and R's, and here they arr!

"I/ --/ -/ --r----/ --/ ---/ ---r--/ -ir-, -i-----/ --/ ---/ -----/ --/ ---r. ---/ --r-/ -ir-/ -i--/ ---/ ---i-/ ---, -----/ --/ ----. ---/ ------/ ----/."

It sure looks like Gandalf to the Balrog:

"I am a servant of the secret fire, wielder of the flame of Anor. The dark fire will not avail you, flame of Udūn. You cannot pass."

(sorry, but I couldn't resist this...)

Beregond 04-08-2009 12:48 PM

Ai! I was being cheeky by picking a very similar quote to yours in the hope it would, if anything, throw people off. Didn't work! But you've got it. I love that quote. :)

And that was solved very quickly nonetheless, I may say.

Guinevere 04-08-2009 01:40 PM

Thank you, Beregond!:)
The next quote is certainly not as well-known:

"----/ ---/ ----/ ----/ ----/. --/ -----/ ----/ ------/ -- ------/ ---/ -------/ --/ ------/. --/ --/ ---/ ----/ ----/ --/ -----/ --/."

Mnemosyne 04-08-2009 01:44 PM

Quote:

None has ever been hewn. It bears cool leaves in summer, and flowers in winter. It is for this that we prize it.
Elves from Eressėa to Aldarion, talking about the tree they'd given him.

Guinevere 04-09-2009 11:51 AM

Exactly!
 
I like this quote because it shows so clearly the attitude of the elves towards nature.
Please proceed, Inziladun!

Inziladun 04-09-2009 07:20 PM

Thanks, Guinevere. That is a nice one.
