Yet another quote that wasn't - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Evisse the Blue · 06-07-2004, 02:19 AM

but I have another guess: Boromir becoming infuriated with Frodo:
"For I am too strong for you, halfling, and in blind wrath I would strike you or worse." Though that's probably not it either, because it's a conditional where a future tense 'would' make more sense.

Hey, that's a great quote and great guesses too.

Sam to Gollum?

Frodo- You won't run away Sam, will you? Gollum.
Gollum-Know master we leads it to the black gate.
Frodo the ring will hold you to your word.
Sam- and I would strike you or worse.
Frodo- why do you do that?
Sam do what?
F- call him names run him down
ect...

Sorry, Evisse & Morsul, those aren't what I'm looking for. Perhaps a less vague hint is in order.

The line would have been spoken by a Ringbearer to a companion.

ok Frodo to Sam

Sam- I could carry iot for you.
Frodo-No it is my burden and in a blind wrath i would strike you or worse no it is my burden mine alone

You're on the right track. Here's a semi-hint: the 'blind wrath' is directly related to the last word in the real sentence.

Morsul the Dark · 06-07-2004, 01:27 PM

hmmm....

so it's frodo to sam just dont know where
so here's a guess that might be acceptable

Bilbo to Gandalf

"If I am angry it's your fault! and in a blind wrath I would strike you or worse you want it for yourself."

"Bilbo Baggins!"

You were on the right track when you said, "so it's frodo to sam just dont know where." Think tower.

in cirith ungol? when sam frees frodo. When Frodo demands the ring from sam?
