I don't know why nobody tried to solve Rimbaud's quote (post #96) ?
I think it must be from the Akallabêth, the messengers of Manwë speaking to the Númenoreans:
" But this we hold to be true, that your home is not here, neither in the land of Aman nor anywhere within the Circles of the World."

Well, I guess it's my turn at this (though Guinevere solved the harder quote, I think...)

Quote:

"I despise our location, as well, and I fear. I am unaware of the cause: neither the wargs, nor the black beyond the entrance, yet of another thing."

Frodo to Boromir in front of the gates of Moria:

Quote:

"I hate this place, too and I am afraid. I don't know of what: not of wolves, or the dark behind the doors, but of something else."

Indeed. Please proceed.

"Should my ears be subjected once more to the phrase 'it is not permitted', I shall be driven into fury."

"If I hear not allowed much oftener," said Sam, "I'm going to get angry."

That would be a quote from Sam, RotK, "The Scouring of the Shire"
