Very well

Who to whom
&quot;Ai na vedui Dunadan! Mea govannen!&quot;

No you have the right to ask after all. I shall answer you, but first I was wondering how is it that you think 23 is old?

I'm 15, and feel rather young among all of you deep Lotr scholars.

Re: Old Took

I used to consider myself old here until I found that many of our members are my age a few actually first saw the Sun ere I. Still, us 'seasoned citizens' (to steal a phrase from Rush Limbaugh) of Middle-Earth can hold our own against these youngster still in their teens and tweens. <img src=smile.gif ALT="">

Re: Threens?

That's because I just made it up. With a little (very little) deduction you should be able to decipher its meaning.

Re: FotR Quotes

Hmmm... I figured it out! Based on your length of Service which you revealed in another post. I'm not sure if you want it known, so I will not reveal my answer. <img src=cool.gif ALT="8)"> I must say that I have been feeling old here with all the students on the page talking of finals and papers due and such. And I'm only just approaching (all too rapidly) my 'threens'. <img src=rolleyes.gif ALT=":rolleyes">

Where has Mister Underhill gone to? I've been to at least three threads where he is wanted.

Sorry for the delay. Life intrudes. Here's a new one to put the thread back on track:<blockquote>Quote:<hr> I pity snails, and all that carry their homes on their backs.<hr></blockquote>Who said it, and what were they talking about?

Re: FotR Quotes

That would be Gwaihir to Gandalf during the rescue from Orthanc.

</p>

[HerenIstarion]

No, cause I need one who spoke the words, not one whom he was quoting

Re: FotR Quotes

&quot;How absolute the knave is! We must speak by the card, or
equivocation will undo us. &quot; That's not a new quote, although you get extra credit iof you identify it (non-Tolkien).

OK, then, it was Gandalf, reporting to the council his rescue from Orthanc.

</p>

[HerenIstarion]

Er, than I would not have added 'said he' part, now is correct

Btw what knaves-s-s, my precious-s-s, what knaves-s-s?

Only 'Alice in Wonderland' pops up to mind, though the quote given sounds too serious for Lewis Carrol

Re: FotR Quotes

Hamlet to Horatio, aabout the gravedigger. Of course you are correct about the quote,

OK who said: &quot;We wish for no strangers in the land at this time, unless they be mighty men of arms in whose faith and help we can trust.&quot;

Re: FotR Quotes

No, although now that I think of it Grima said something very similar.

Now I got it - Ingold to Gandalf on the borders of Gondor (conversation concerning Pippin)

Re: FotR Quotes

You got !

P.s. sorry about your unfortunate metamorphorsis. Something you ate?

</p>

[HerenIstarion]

Just a piece of pizza (and at this homemade - my mother is 'chef de cuisine '), so nothing wrong with that. Dunno

Ok, next:

'No. He had not when I departed; but that was nine days ago

Who, to whom and what/who he was talking about?

This could refer to me, but it doesn't. Who does it refer to and who said it?

But tell me, who are you, alone, yourself and nameless?</p>
