Yup, that's it. Good job Evisse. (And Kudos to Perky Ent too. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img])

Evisse the Blue 02-07-2004 08:44 AM

Wait a sec, I'm a bit confused. Who should go now? I found the quote in the book but it was Perky Ent who actually guessed it...

The Perky Ent 02-07-2004 10:30 AM

I guessed the quote but i couldn't find it. Therefore, visse the Blue should go!

____ stood _____. ____ _____ endlessly on. The ____ murmured in the ______ of the trees. _____ shivered.

Guinevere 02-07-2004 02:53 PM

Ha, found it! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Boromir stood silent. Rauros roared endlessly on. The wind murmured in the branches of the trees. Frodo shivered.

Correct! You have a fabulous memory, Phantom! :)

Ulmo to Tuor:
"But behold!" said he, "in the armour of Fate (as the Children of Earth name it) there is ever a rift, and in the walls of Doom a breach, until the full-making, which ye call the End. So it shall be while I endure, a secret voice that gainsayeth, and a light where darkness was decreed."

Correct, and well done, Sleepy! :)

(btw: you haven't forgotten that it's your turn in the "proverbs"-thread, have you? ;) )

Hope it makes sense.
What I'm up in the Proverbs thread?
Rats lately I've been up in too many threads for my own good.
Well you'll get the question. As soon as I can find one. Maybe another year or two ;)

Guinevere 03-12-2004 03:45 AM

At last I have found it in the Hobbit ! :)

"Is that The Mountain?" asked Bilbo in a solemn voice, looking at it with round eyes. He had never seen a thing that looked so big before.

This is when they are approaching the Misty Mountains.

Sleepy Ranger 03-12-2004 03:58 AM

All yours.

Guinevere 03-14-2004 11:11 AM

:) Not so far away from the last quote, that one...

"Here," said Elrond, turning to Gandalf, "is Boromir,a man from the South. He arrived in the grey morning, and seeks for counsel. I have bidden him to be present, for here his questions will be answered."

Mariska Greenleaf 03-18-2004 05:44 AM

I wouldn't say it was too easy, it just sounded very familiar, and I knew where to look for it...

good luck!;)

Guinevere 03-21-2004 07:25 AM

Ah, finally it rings a bell ... ;) : It's the Mirkwood-spiders talking about the poor dwarves:

"I saw one a-struggling just now. Just coming round again after a bee-autiful sleep."

Mariska Greenleaf 03-22-2004 04:34 AM

Yes, that's what I was looking for!
Your turn again Guinevere!
