I recently remembered some part of one of the books paraphrased here:
Narrator: It always irked Boromir that his father was not a King.
Boromir: How long does it take for a Steward to become a King?
Denenthor: For lesser men, I would already be King, but we of Gondor are better.
Something about ten thousand years to become King was in there too, I think.
I wanted to look at this passage again when I remembered it, but I can't find it anywhere!!! I looked in the Appens., in Unfinished Tales , The Lost Road and Other Writings , and The Book of Lost Tales (just for the fun of it). I can't find it again!
I know I wouldn't have dreamed up something good about Denethor.
Help!
