Thaurarda: You're probably thinking of what Legolas said of the Balrog in Lorien. "It was a Balrog of Morgoth, the most horrible of all Elf-slayers except for the One who sits in the Dark Tower" (or something like that). "The One" is a reference to Sauron in this quote.

Elrian: On the other hand, why should it hurry? It might have been slumbering and it was awakened by Pippin's stone, or Pippin's stone may have awakened some Orc-guards who then called for the Balrog... or perhaps the Balrog needed time to gather all the Orcs together.
