Nice try, but no cylindrical smoking thing. Attend to the fact that 'this high' bears positive implications, and Sam in Lorine, in fact, should be afraid of sleeping 'this high",

Gwaihir perchance?
Might it be the Lord of the Eagles, high in his Eyrie, commenting upon the commotion caused by the Goblins and Wargs who had trapped Gandalf, Bilbo, Thorin and co in the trees just east of the Misty Mountains?

Can it referr to Aragonr's decision to ride the Paths of the Dead? Probably said by Eomer to Eowyn...

No, but Eomer is relevant to the (non-)quote ...

Could it possibly be Gandalf to Thorin concerning sheltering in a cave on a High Pass?:

You're right!
Yes, that's the one. more precisely after Aragorn says: 'Would that day were here and we may ride down upon them like a storm out of the mountains"
Shamelessly off-topic: Congrats Russia at the World Skating Champs!

gracious as always, HI :)
Maybe a bit of a stretch but...It could be the dwarves about Bilbo when he was fussing over his plates and running to and fro from one to the other trying to keep his plates from being broken.

a bit too early
Well, Bilbo was not that old than, after all. And you forgot about 'a bit to the east' too. The one to be referred to is called 'fellow' in the actual quote immediately preceeding the non-existent one

more hints, than:
1. Naming dwarves and BIlbo you hit quite close 2. Look through final chapters of the Hobbit for it

Hmmm, I think I discovered something interesting: you have a tendency to pick a lot of quotes from this particular chapter 15 of The Hobbit.

yes, certainly
pray proceed edit: hum? Chater 15, is it? Honestly, it is unconscious... it was not me, I was set up, I ain't done it... But if it is really the case, than you have additional tool to guess out my questions, eh?

A number of people may have had uttered it on number of occasions. Would you narrow it up a bit, please?

Nope
I'm going to become self-plagiarist with reagard to hints. So the hint runs again as: Quote:

If I may venture a guess . . .
It may be Thorin from The Hobbit speaking of the desolation of Smaug as they approached the Lonely Mountain in the chapter "On the Doorstep". Quote:

near hit
It's not a ten mark, but nine and a half for sure . Try to narrow it just a bit (Non existent quotes are usually extensions of direct quotes)

May it be Haldir to Frodo about Dol-Guldur? Since Sauron declared himself at Barad-Dur in T.A. 2951, and Frodo was visiting Lorien in T.A. 3019 that may be the case:

I think you're trying to trick us. Could this be from the Council of Elrond? Gandalf quoting Radagast quoting Saruman:
" 'Saruman the White,' answered Radagast. 'And he told me to say that if you feel the need, he will help; but you must seek his aid at once, or it will be too late.' " "--Bid him hasten, so he may come hither in a short while." |
