The quote is: For he that attempteth this shall prove mine instrument in the devising of things more wonderful, which himself hath not imagined."

An example of this is when Gollum fell in to the Cracks of Doom. Gollum being the evil thing that he was proved to be the instrument of good in the devising of a very wonderful thing: the destruction of Sauron. Gollum did nopt want to destroy the Ring but that's the way it turned out.
