ok since no one can get that-try this it's more like part of a song in the book though:
"The world was fair;the mountains tall in Elder days before the fall"

This seems like an easy one...hope you get it!

Sam to Frodo regarding the sounds of Faramir's men fighting the Southrons.


Arie, you need to give people a bit more time to answer a question or to verify correct answers before jumping in with a new question.

Bruce MacCulloch - you are right [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Arie- I believe your quote came from the verses that Gimli chanted in the halls of Moria ( A Journey in the Dark, FOTR ).

It's still my turn - and no one has answered my quote.
- Arie, if you must ask a quote, either answer one first so that it is your turn to ask, or start a new thread, please.

Inklingelf: your quote is Pippin to Treebeard.

And I think the other one is Boromir at the Council, but I could be wrong.

Ok perhaps it was a bit *too* hard so I'll narrow it down....


It is in the first half of RoTK. It's spoken by a person while in the city of Minas Tirith. That should narrow it down a bit...


(and yes, it means star-star... slight mix-up while translating.. it was supposed to be day-star.. ah well)
