it is well protected at night!

Maybe Thorin talking about the arkenstone.

That is Beorn saying farewell to Gandalf, Bilbo, Thorin & Co. in Queer Lodgings. But Tolkien (or Bilbo) makes it into a slight 'flashback' - as you can see.....

Quote:

'The goblins,' Beorn had said, 'will not dare to cross the Great River for a hundred miles north of the Carrock nor to come near my house - it is well protected at night! - but I should ride fast; for if they make their raid soon they will cross the river to the south and scour all the edge of the forest so as to cut you off, and Wargs run swifter than ponies. Still you are safer going north, even though you seem to be going back nearer to their strongholds; for that is what they will least expect, and they will have the longer ride to catch you. Be off now as quick as you may!'

You weren't kidding when you said this post was some months ago!

And, you are correct. Your turn.

I really do need to read this book a second time. :o

And your snores would waken a stone dragon

That's the Rivendell elves to Bilbo in The Last Stage.

Yes, Goldberry, you are correct. Please proceed.

Thanks. Ok...new quote:

I'll soon put an end to that.

It's been a week, so need a hint, anybody?

Random guess... Bilbo, to himself? Sounds like after the dwarves were talking about him, and he overheard... yeesh, I need to reread now!
But yeah, random guess. :rolleyes:

one of the mirkwood spiders said it

Yep, go ahead, Bombadil.

"Nothing can escape Smaug once he sees it."

Thorin to the other Dwarves and Bilbo when Smaug went after the ponies.

"But what comes next?"

I have no clue...

Bilbo to Thorin&Co. at Bag End?

Bilbo to the Dwarves in Beorn's house? (Did Bilbo even say this?)

No, and Bilbo didn't say it.

Am I allowed to give the quote this way?

I __ _ ____ ______, and I ____ ______ than _ ____, if ___ ___ ____ I ____.
Sorry if this isn't allowed. This is how it's done in some other games and I think it's kind of fun.

Yo!! Guys, it's been two weeks. This isn't that hard. If you need clue, just ask. :D

I __ a ____ ______ and I ____ ______ than I ____ if ___ see ____ I ____.
Good enough for you? ;)

I am a good cook myself, and cook better than I cook, if you see what I mean.

Bilbo to the trolls.

I guess I can accept that...

Yeah, you got it. ;)

Quote:

You may eat that, if you will.

Bilbo to the dwarves in the beginning?

Bilbo to the Dwarves in Mirkwood?

Bilbo to the Dwarves after he met them on the other side of the Misty Mountains?

No - it wasn't Bilbo who said it.
