Boromir to Frodo, in 'The breaking of the fellowship"

*bump*
 

Mariska?

I just keep forgetting about this thread :o

Evisse was right!

Thanks.

Aragorn to Arwen?

Yep!

This next one is verrrry easy, but I like the quote. especially in context. :D

"Never laugh at live dragons."

That's one of Bilbo's favourite sayings. He said it to himself in Smaug's lair, after having done just that. :D

Yess. But without the precious the Baggins would have been "literal" toast. :eek:

Your turn.

Thanks.

That was Boromir during the councel of Elrond.

Correct
 

Boy, that was fast!

:)

Next one:

I can't help myself not to answer this one...
 

Aragorn about Gandalf in Moria.

For some reason I knew that the answer wouldn't take long...
Well done! ;)

This one may prove just as easy...
 

:p

Turin to Mablung, while he was pantsing Saeros. :D

Sure!

All right. This one may be a bit obscure. I think it counts as an aphorism.

"...it is one thing to see what needs doing, and quite another to find the means."

Answer should include exactly who the speaker is addressing.

This is Gandalf speaking, to the hobbits and Gimli, after the destruction of the ring, in Minas Tirith.

Correct. Your turn.

Hoi! I came across a nice one just today, try to find it!

Isn't that Tuor to Voronwë ? ( On the way to Gondolin )

It sure is! Your turn, Guinevere ;)

Thanks! :)

Faramir to Frodo, in Ithilien.

You're right, Tuor! :)
"murder will out" refers to the fact that Boromir's horn was found. Your turn!

Okay. Here goes:

Gandalf to Merry.

Correct. For bonus points, what was the oversight?

Ooh, bonus points. That would be that Sauron payed no more mind to Thrain than to get the Dwarven Ring. He missed the map and key, wise fool. ;) Hopefully I can get this post up this time... my computer is being stupid. :rolleyes:

Turambar to Hunthor , when they didn't know where Glaurung would cross Teiglin.

Correct as always. :)

Thanks, Firefoot .

That was Olwë to Feanor, when Feanor accused Olwë of renouncing friendship.

Exactly!
 

that was a fast answer, Mariska! :)
I hope you still find a new proverb somewhere ;)

It is starting to get difficult to find a challenging proverb indeed!

Probably a bit too easy...

Butterbur to Frodo.

that's right! Take it over, Firefoot! ;)

Probably another too easy one... ;)
