Welcome Ghwaihir, to Barrow Downs (and to ezboard?)!!
Your quote sounds like Bergil talking to Pippin. He'd probably think me geriatric.

In the King of the Golden Hall, much is made of staves. Gandalf is permitted to bring his staff into Theoden's presence. Theoden remained hunched upon his own staff (with its white-bone handle) until Gandalf tells him, &quot;Cast aside your prop!&quot; Grima is described as having been a &quot;support&quot; to his master. With what historical episode does all this talk of old kings and of staves resonate?
(hint, Hama)

&quot;Freca, your folly has grown with your belly. If Helm dislikes a crooked staff that is thrust at him, he breaks it. So!&quot;. And Helm Hammerhand, King of Rohan, broke the staff of Freca the Dunlending lord (and Freca´s skull).
And then he went out of the besieged Hornburg, clad only in white and only with his staff.
Am I near? Háma was Helm´s son...

This could be Elrond speaking to the Noldorin smiths when they sought refuge in Imladris. It was guarded only by the Loudwater. The policy of the house was to seek only wisdon, not worldly power. (???)

Sound explanation, but not correct.

btw: it is a real quote from one of the books, not a &quot;quote that might have been&quot;.

I think the quote is spoken to Orodreth, after he had built a bridge over the Narog at Turin`s insistence (&quot;for the swifter passage of arms&quot;).

I`m not sure who actually said it, maybe it was a warning from Ulmo?

Actually, I'm going to butt in here, since Sharku has taken leave of absense for a while. I think Grima Wormtongue said this of Aragorn in Edoras. Correct me please, if I am wrong.

The rich fisheries of the lakes and rivers in the southern parts of course. Really, it fits.
Or, English admins could have said it in 1940/41 to the population of London. But I shouldn´t stray too far from Middle-Earth I guess.
