Heh, now I recognize it!

Lady beloved, whom all Men,
whom Elfinesse, and whom all things
with fur and fell and feathered wings
should serve and love - arise! Away!
Put on thy cloak! Before the day
comes over Nargothrond we fly
to Northern perils, thou and I.

Huan to Luthien.

Didn't you remember, Macalaure, that these were the very first lines that were posted on this thread and that you guessed them yourself?

I knew it before already, but I didn't know where it is said (and still don't know) and couldn't remember the exact wording.

"What is hope?" (.....) "An expectation of good, which though uncertain has some foundation in what is known? Then we have none."

Thumbs up correct quotation!

...but wrong time & speaker

It's Andreth, answering Finrod Felagund's question: "Have you no hope then?"
Afterwards he explains the difference between "amdir" and "estel" (but that was a bit too long to quote here..)

(Btw, this was quoted several times here in discussions, and it was what made me want to read the Athrabeth !)
