Suddenly Gandalf laughed. 'Come inside!' he shouted, and putting out both
his arms he lifted the astonished Sam, shears, grass-clippings and all, right through the window and stood him on the floor. [ November 05, 2002: Message edited by: Beren87 ] |

If you are absolutely sure it's right, then you can go. Unless the person specifies, of course.

The hoofs drew nearer. They had no time to find any hiding-place better than the general darkness under the trees; Sam and Pippin crouched behind a large tree-bole, while Frodo crept back a few yards towards the lane. FotR ch3 Three is company.

"Here is the heart of Elvendom on earth," he sais, "and here my heart dwells ever, unless there be a light beyondthe dark roads that we still must tread, you and I. Come with me!" And taking Frodo's hand in his, he left the hill of Cerin Amroth and came there never again as living man.
I'm absolutely certain I'm right so is it all right if I just carry on? Here is the next quote: "You do not ___ me or ____ me much that concerns yourself, _____" said ______. [ December 01, 2002: Message edited by: Orodoliel ]

"You do not ask me or tell me much that concerns yourself, Frodo," said Gildor.
Is that it ? (I`ll have to ponder on a new quote first...)

Could we please have a clue?
It doesn't seem like anyone knows this one, and it has been quite a while. Maybe just a couple more words?
