Thank-you, I take that as a 'real' compliment coming from you Beren. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

I'll repost my quote from the other thread, I had missed this one first time round. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

I can't resist answering that one... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

"Many are the strange chances of the world," said Mithrandir, "and help oft shall come from the hands of the weak when the Wise falter."

Mithrandir said it to Elrond at the first White Council, in "Of the rings of power"

Thank you, Gilraën. Now for a new quote...*sigh*.
Seves me right for popping in here, now I had to look through all those pages with the old quotes, so as not to repeat one of them!!

Either Amandil says it to Elendil or the other way round, I can't remember which, sorry. I'll look it up if needs be, or if I've got it completely wrong. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

I started reading The Silmarillion to my mother a few days ago, so that quote was fresh in my mind.

I don't have my book, but I think that's Maeglin to Hurin and Huor.

Huan to Beren.

Quote:
Then for the second time Huan spoke with words; and he counselled Beren, saying: 'From the shadow of death you can no longer save Lúthien, for by her love she is now subject to it. You can turn from your fate and lead her into exile, seeking peace in vain while your life lasts. But if you will not deny your doom, then either Lúthien, being forsaken, must assuredly die alone, or she must with you challenge the fate that lies before you--hopeless, yet not certain. Further counsel I cannot give, nor may I go further on your road. But my heart forebodes that what you find at the Gate I shall myself see. All else is dark to me; yet it may be that our three paths lead back to Doriath, and we may meet before the end.'

It's said about Anglachel. But I can't remember which 'wielder' says it. So I'll guess Turin.

It is about Anglachel, Gilraën, but the Phantom got the right "wielder": it was indeed Beleg, speaking to Melian when she warned him about the sword.

Your turn, Phantom! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Don't feel bad, I didn't check it, trusting to memory. I'll live to guess another time [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

I checked this time though.

Quote:
Yet Maglor still held back, saying: 'If Manwë and Varda themselves deny the fulfilment of an oath to which we named them in witness, is it not made void?'
