Silmaril Is it a book quote or movie quote?

I don't think something quite like this has been done yet. If it has, please point me in the right direction.

Here's the game: You try to identify if the given quote is from the FotR and TTT books or movies. Here is a handy link in case you don't have the books or movies memorized:Seat of Kings, but please don't use this to find a given quote. Also, give the name of the character who you are quoting, we're not trying to guess who said it, but where.
If you guess it right, your next!

Here's the starter:
Gollum: I found it, I did. Orc's don't use it, Orcs don't know it. Orcs don't cross the Marshes, they go round for miles and miles. Very lucky you came this way. Very lucky you found Sméagol, yes. Follow Sméagol.

Good luck!

I know that there's something similar to that in the book, but I'm pretty sure it's in the movie. Either way, it's in TTT.

Question

I am not sure, as I have not seen the movie or read the book for three weeks now, (that must be corrected!) but wasn't this quote both in the TTT movie and book?
Oh, oops. I just noticed someone already said it. O well.

It's the movie. The book quote is (and I'm sorry if I get this wrong but I'm too lazy to go and get my book) "your figers would remember their old strengh better, if they grasped a sword-hilt."

This quote was in the movie. Arvedui III I think had the most precise answer [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] Your go!

Arvedui III, do you want to take the next turn? If not we can let someone else do the next.

Fine, I will start this one up again myself.

Book or movie quote? And to make it a bit more than just answering book or movie...who said it and to whom were they talking to?

Be careful, or hobbits will go down and light little candles of their own.

EDIT: Dayvampyre! I used to have that avatar! Its great isn't it?

Carlas: You can have the turn, since you got more specific than I did.

And I am quite fond of the little piccy, didn't know you used to have it.

Didn't Mr. Ent-Man have a similar to that in the movie?

I'm going to have to go with my gut though and say "book quote"

Carlas and kittie are correct as to where it is at, but it was not Grima who said it.

Do YOU know who said it?
