The Lord of the Rings is a set of three motion pictures that form Peter Jackson's adaptation of J.R.R Tolkien's novel The Lord of the Rings . The scripts do not adhere precisely to the story in the volumes of the novel, yet contain most of its most important elements. Yet, some major passages of the books were left out of the movies, and others significantly altered. Two sets of omissions that many consider major were: "The Old Forest", "In the House of Tom Bombadil", & "Fog on the Barrow-Downs", from The Fellowship of the Ring, and "Many Partings", "Homeward Bound", & "The Scouring of the Shire" from The Return of the King. These were omitted, and other passages altered, for reasons of dramatic flow and practical limits on what could be presented in three movies.

Attempts will be made here to keep quotations in sequential order, and to indicate those which are said out of the context they have in the book, or by another character.

The Fellowship of the Ring (2001)

[edit]

Prologue

Galadriel [V.O.]: I amar prestar aen. Han mathon ne nen. Han mathon ne chae. A han noston ned 'wilith.
[Translation, no subtitles]: The world is changed. I feel it in the water. I feel it in the earth. I smell it in the air.
Galadriel's Introduction was originally said by Treebeard in the book The Return of the King.
Much that once was is lost, for none now live who remember it.
[Lord of the Rings appears on the screen, and then fades out.]
It began with the forging of the Great Rings. Three were given to the Elves, immortal, wisest, and fairest of all beings.
[Shows three elves (Galadriel, Gil-galad, Cirdan) holding up their rings]
Seven to the Dwarf lords, great miners and craftsman of the mountain halls.
[Seven Dwarves pick up a ring from a pedestal and hold them up]
And nine... nine rings were gifted to the race of Men, who above all else desire power.
[Nine men are shown holding their ring. Fades out to show a map of Middle-earth.]]
For within these rings was bound the strength and will to govern each race. But they were all of them deceived, for another ring was made. In the land of Mordor, in the fires of Mount Doom, the Dark Lord Sauron forged in secret a master ring to control all others.
[Sauron is shown in Mount Doom creating the One Ring]
And into this ring he poured his cruelty, his malice, and his will to dominate all life. One ring to rule them all.
[The One Ring is flying in the air, and then is on Sauron's hand.]
One by one, the free lands of Middle-earth fell to the power of the Ring. But there were some who resisted. A last alliance of Men and Elves marched against the armies of Mordor, and on the slopes of Mount Doom, they fought for the freedom of Middle-earth.
[The Last Alliance is shown battling thousands of orcs. We see Elrond and Gil-galad.]
Elrond: Tangado haid! Leithio i philinn!
[Translation, no subtitles]: Hold positions! Fire the arrows!
Galadriel [V.O.]: Victory was near... but the power of the Ring could not be undone.
[Sauron comes, and he flings many men and elves into the air with his mace. He kills Elendil, and Isildur runs up to his father.]
It was in this moment, when all hope had faded, that Isildur, son of the king, took up his father's sword.
[Sauron comes upon Isildur, steps on Narsil and shatters it. Isildur cuts off Sauron's four left fingers with the shards of the broken blade. Sauron explodes.]]
Sauron, the enemy of the free peoples of Middle-earth, was defeated. The Ring passed to Isildur, who had this one chance to destory evil forever. But the hearts of men are easily corrupted, and the Ring of Power has a will of its own.
[Isildur is riding a horse, the Ring upon his neck. Orcs sudddenly attack, and he is shot and killed. His body is floating on a river, and the Ring falls to the bottom of the river.]
In the Extended Edition, it shows that Isildur put on the Ring and ran away from his men. The Ring slips from his finger when he is in the river, and the orcs shoot him down.
Some things that should not have been forgotten, were lost. History became legend, legend became myth, and for two and a half thousand years, the Ring passed out of all knowledge. Until, when chance came, it ensnared a new bearer.
Gollum (not seen): My precious...
Galadriel [V.O.]: The Ring came to the creature Gollum, who took it deep into the tunnels of the Misty Mountains, and there, it consumed him.
Gollum: It came to me. My own, my love, my own, my... precious. Gollum!
Galadriel [V.O.]: The Ring brought to Gollum unnatural long life. For five hundred years it poisoned his mind. And in the gloom of Gollum's cave, it waited. Darkness crept back into the forest of the world. Rumor grew of a shadow in the east, whispers of a nameless fear, and the Ring of Power perceived its time had now come. It abandoned Gollum.
[The Ring bounces on rocks, falling away from Gollum.]
But something happened then the Ring did not intend. It was picked up by the most unlikely creature imaginable.
[The Ring, half-covered in dirt, is picked up.]
Bilbo: What's this?
Galadriel [V.O.]: A Hobbit. Bilbo Baggins of the Shire.
Bilbo: A Ring.
Gollum (not seen): Losssst! Oh, lost! My precious is lost!
[Bilbo puts the Ring in his pocket.]
Galadriel [V.O.]: For the time would soon come when Hobbits would shake the fortunes of all.
[edit]

Shire

  • Gandalf, later also Bilbo:
    "The road goes ever on and on,
    Down from the door where it began.
    Now far ahead the road has gone,
    And I must follow if I can…"
  • Gandalf: "BILBO BAGGINS! Do not take me for some conjuror of cheap tricks! I am NOT trying to rob you. I'm trying to help you."
  • Hobbits really are amazing creatures. You can learn all that there is to know about them in a month, and yet after a hundred years, they can still surprise you.
    • Gandalf, just before he sends Frodo on his quest.
  • Gandalf: Confound it all, Samwise Gamgee! Have you been eavesdropping?!
    Sam: I've been dropping no eaves, sir, honest. I was just cutting the grass under the window there, if you'll follow me.
    Gandalf: A little late for trimming the verge, don't you think?
    Sam : I heard raised voices.
    Gandalf : What did you hear? Speak!
    Sam : N-nothing important, sir. That is, I heard a good deal about a ring, and a dark lord, and something about the end of the world, but please, Mr. Gandalf, sir, don't hurt me. Don't turn me into anything... unnatural.
  • Bilbo: "It's a dangerous business going out your door. You step onto the Road, and if you don't keep your feet, there's no knowing where you might be swept off to."
[edit]

Gandalf and Saruman

  • Your love of the halflings' leaf has clearly slowed your mind. ~ Saruman to Gandalf
  • Tell me, friend, when did Saruman the Wise abandon reason for madness? ~ Gandalf to Saruman
[edit]

Bree

  • Strider: You draw far too much attention to yourself, Mr. Underhill!
  • I can avoid being seen if I wish, but to disappear entirely? That is a rare gift! - "Strider"/Aragorn
[edit]

Flight to the Ford

  • Arwen: Im Arwen. Telin le thaed. (Frodo, I am Arwen. I come to help you.) Lasto beth nîn, tolo dan na ngalad. (Hear my voice, come back to the light.)
    Merry: Who is she?
    Arwen: Frodo...
    Sam: She's an elf...
    Arwen: He's fading. He's not going to last. We must get him to my father.
    Arwen: I've been looking for you for two days.
    Merry: Where are you taking him?
    Arwen: There are five wraiths behind you. Where the other four are, I do not know...
    Aragorn:     Dartho guin Beriain. Rych le ad tolthathon. (Stay with the Hobbits. I will send horses for you.)
    Arwen:     Hon mabathon. Rochon ellint im. (I will take him. I am the swifter rider.)
    Aragorn:     Andelu i ven.(The road is very dangerous.)
    Pippin: What are they saying?
    Arwen:     Frodo fîr. Ae athradon i hir, tur gwaith nîn beriatha hon. (Frodo is dying. If I get across the river, the power of my people will protect him.) I do not fear them.
    Aragorn:     Be iest lîn. (According to your wish.) Ride hard! Don't look back!
    Arwen:     Noro lim, Asfaloth! Noro lim! (Run fast, Asfaloth! Run fast)
    Sam: What are you doin'? Those wraiths are still out there!
  • Nin o Chithaeglir, lasto beth daer: Rimmo nin Bruinen dan in Ulaer! Nin o Chithaeglir, lasto beth daer: Rimmo nin Bruinen dan in Ulaer! (Waters of the Misty Mountains, listen to the great word: Flow waters of Loudwater against the Ringwraiths!) - Arwen
  • What grace is given me, let it pass to him - Arwen
[edit]

Rivendell

  • Frodo: Where am I?
    Gandalf: You are in the House of Elrond. And it is ten o'clock in the morning, on October the 24th, if you want to know.
  • Saruman: The friendship of Saruman is not lightly thrown aside. One ill turn deserves another. Embrace the power of the Ring, or embrace your own destruction!
    Gandalf: There is only one Lord of the Ring, only one who bends it to his will, and he does not share power! (Gandalf throws himself off the side of Orthanc and flies away on Gwaihir's back)
    Saruman: So, you have chosen death.
  • Frodo: Packed already?
    Sam: No 'arm in bein' prepared...
    Frodo: I thought you wanted to see the Elves, Sam?
    Sam: I do!
    Frodo: More than anything?
    Sam: I did. It's just... We did what Gandalf wanted us to do... We got the Ring this far to Rivendell, and I thought, seein' as 'ow you're on the mend, we'd be off soon, off 'ome.
    Frodo: You're right Sam, we did what we set out to do. The Ring will be safe in Rivendell. I am ready to go home.
  • I choose a mortal life! ~ Arwen
  • Gondor has no king. Gondor needs no king. ~ Boromir
  • I will take it! I will take the Ring to Mordor! ...though, I do not know the way. ~ Frodo
  • Pippin: (as he and Merry rush up to Elrond) We're going too! You'll have to send us home tied up in a sack to stop us! Anyway, you need people of intelligence on this sort of... mission. Quest. Thing.
    Merry: Well that rules you out, Pip.
    Elrond: Nine companions... so be it. You shall be the Fellowship of the Ring.
    Pippin: Great. Where are we going?
    • In the book, the Fellowship is actually not announced immediately following the Council of Elrond.
[edit]

Moria

Behold! The great realm, of the dwarf city, of Dwarrowdelf.

  • Nobody tosses a dwarf! ~ Gimli
  • Frodo: It's a pity Bilbo didn't kill him when he had the chance.
    Gandalf: Pity? It was pity that stayed Bilbo's hand. Many that live deserve death. Some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them, Frodo? Do not be too eager to deal out death in judgment. Even the very wise cannot see all ends. My heart tells me that Gollum has some part to play yet, for good or ill before this is over. The pity of Bilbo may rule the fate of many.
    Frodo: I wish the ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.
    Gandalf: So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you were also meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought.
    • Spoken here in Moria, this conversation occurred much earlier in the book's version.
  • Fool of a Took! Throw yourself in next time, and rid us of your stupidity. ~ Gandalf to Pippin
    • One of the classic lines from the book, in a more dramatic form.
  • Let them come. There is one Dwarf left in Moria who still draws breath!
    • Gimli, standing on Balin's tomb awaiting the Goblin onslaught.
  • You cannot pass! I am a servant of the secret fire, wielder of the Flame of Anor! The dark fire will not avail you, Flame of Udun! Go back to the Shadow! YOU SHALL NOT PASS !!!
    • Gandalf to the Balrog of Moria; flame of Anor may refer to his position as ringbearer of Narya.
  • Fly, you fools! ~ Gandalf hanging on the edge of the abyss into which he falls.
[edit]

Lothlorien

  • What will I see? - Frodo
    • When asked to look in a mirror
  • In place of a dark lord you would have a queen! Not dark but beautiful and terrible as the dawn, treacherous as the sea, stronger than the foundations of the earth! All shall love me and despair!
    • Galadriel to Frodo. She stops her declaration, and then resumes: "I pass the test. I will diminish, and go into the West, and remain Galadriel."
[edit]

Amon Hen

  • I see your mind! ~ Boromir
  • I would have gone with you to the end, into the very fires of Mordor! ~ Aragorn
  • I made a promise, Mr Frodo! A promise! "Don't you leave him, Samwise Gamgee." And I don't mean to! I don't mean to... ! ~ Sam to Frodo
  • Aragorn: I do not know what strength is in my blood, but I swear to you I will not let the White City fall, nor our people fail.
    Boromir: Our people, our people. I would have followed you to the end... my brother... my captain... my king .
    Aragorn: Be at peace, Son of Gondor.
  • Aragorn: We travel light.
[edit]

The Two Towers (2002)

[edit]

Emyn Muil

  • Frodo: What food have we got?
    Sam: Let me see.
    He takes something wrapped in leaves out of his bag.
    Sam: Lembas bread. And look!
    He takes another piece out.
    More lembas bread.
    He breaks the piece in half and tosses half to Frodo. They eat.
    Sam: I don't usually hold with foreign foods. But this Elvish stuff, it's not bad.
    Frodo: Nothing ever dampens your spirits, does it, Sam?
    Sam looks up at the sky and frowns.
    Sam: Those rain clouds might.
  • Gollum: They're thieves. They're thieves! They're filthy little thieves! Where is it? Where is it? They ssstole it from us... my precioussss. Curse them! We hates them! It's ours, it is, and we wants it!
  • (Gollum is complaining very loudly about the Elven rope to which he's tethered)
    Sam: Every Orc in Mordor's gonna hear this racket! Let's just tie him up and leave him!
    Gollum: NO! That would kill us! KILL us!
    Sam: It's no more than you deserve!
[edit]

Rohan and Fangorn

  • A red sun rises. Blood has been spilled this night. ~ Legolas
  • Aragorn: Legolas! What do your Elf-eyes see?
    Legolas: The Uruks turn northeast... They are taking the Hobbits to Isengard!
    • During Legolas, Aragorn and Gimli's pursuit of the Uruks who have captured Merry and Pippin.
  • Tree? I am no tree! I am an Ent... ~ Treebeard
  • Gimli: Give me your name, horsemaster, and I shall give you mine.
    Éomer: I would cut off your head, Dwarf... if it stood but a little higher from the ground.
    Legolas: (taking out bow) You would die before your stroke fell.
    • After Éomer and his followers demand to know why Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli are in the Riddermark.
  • Aragorn: Gandalf.
    Gandalf: Gandalf? Yes… That was what they used to call me. Gandalf the Grey... That was my name.
    Gimli: Gandalf.
    Gandalf: I am Gandalf the White. And I come back to you now... at the turn of the tide.
[edit]

Edoras

  • "Why do you lay these troubles on an already troubled mind? Can you not see? Your uncle is wearied by your malcontent... your warmongering."—Grima Wormtongue, bullying Éomer.
  • Grima: Late is the hour in which this conjurer chooses to appear! Lathspell I name you. Ill news is an ill guest.

Gandalf: Be silent! Keep your forked tongue behind your teeth! I have not passed through fire and death to bandy crooked words with a witless worm.

  • "No parent should have to bury their child." ~ Theoden King of Rohan.[1]
[edit]

Helm's Deep and Isengard

  • A new power is rising! Its victory is at hand! This night, the land will be stained with the blood of Rohan! March to Helm's Deep! Leave none alive! TO WAR!!! There will be no dawn; for Men!
    • Saruman, rallying his army.
  • Look at my men! Their courage hangs by a thread! If this is to be our end, then I would have them make such an end, as to be worthy of remembrance! ~ King Theoden
  • Where is the Horse and the Rider?
    Where is the Horn that was blowing?
    They have passed like Rain on the Mountains,
    Like Wind in the Meadows.
    The Days have gone down in the West,
    Behind the Hills,
    Into Shadow.
    How did it come to this? ~ King Theoden
  • So it begins! ~ King Theoden
  • Gimli: (quickly and quietly) Toss me.
    Aragorn: What?
    Gimli: I cannot jump the distance! You'll have to toss me!
    Aragorn smiles and gets ready to throw Gimli. Just as he is about to pick him up, Gimli stops him.
    Gimli: Don't tell the Elf.
    Aragorn: Not a word.
    He picks up Gimli and throws him over the gap.
    • Aragorn and Gimli, at the Battle For Helm's Deep. Gimli cannot jump from the causeway to the main path, so he reluctantly asks Aragorn to toss him. Previously, Gimli had insisted that no one tosses a dwarf.
  • Theoden: So much death. What can men do against such reckless hate?
    Aragorn: Ride out with me. Ride out and meet them.
    Theoden: For death and glory?
    Aragorn: For Rohan. For your people.
    Gimli: The sun is rising...
    Theoden: Yes. Yes! The horn of Helm Hammerhand shall sound in the deep...one last time!
  • Theoden: Fell deeds awake.
    (Gimli runs up to the horn)
    Theoden: Now for Wrath...now for Ruin...and a Red Dawn...
    (a thundering blast issues from the horn)
    Theoden: Forth Eorlingas!
  • My business is with Isengard tonight. With rock and stone! ~ Treebeard
  • "Sauron's wrath will be terrible, his retribution swift. The battle for Helm's Deep is over. The battle for Middle Earth is about to begin. All our hopes now lie with two little hobbits. Somewhere in the wilderness." ~ Gandalf
[edit]

Ithilien

  • They are young, they are tender, they are nice! Yes they are! Eat them, eat them! ~ Gollum
  • Sam: What we need is a few good taters.
    Gollum: What's "taters" precious? What's "taters, eh?
    Sam: Po-ta-toes! Boil em, mash em, stick em in a stew. Lovely big golden chips with a nice piece of fried fish. (Gollum makes disgusted sounds) Even you couldn't say "no" to that.
    Gollum: Oh, yes we could! Spoiling nice fish! Give it to us raw, and wriggling— you keep nasty chips!
    Sam: You're hopeless.
  • Faramir: The enemy? His sense of duty was no less than yours, I deem. You wonder what his name is...where he came from. And if he was really evil at heart. What lies or threats led him on this long march from home. If he would not rather have stayed there...in peace. War will make corpses of us all.
  • The rock and pool, is nice and cool, so juicy swee-eeet! Our only wish, to catch a fish, so juicy swee-eeet! ~ Gollum
[edit]

Osgiliath

  • Sam: It's me. It's your Sam. Don't you know your Sam?
    Frodo : I can't do this, Sam.
    Sam: It's all wrong. By rights we shouldn't even be here. But we are. It's like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were. And sometimes you didn’t want to know the end… because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it’s only a passing thing… this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines, it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you… that meant something. Even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn’t. They kept going… because they were holding on to something.
    Frodo: What are we holding on to, Sam?
    Sam: That there’s some good in this world, Mr. Frodo. And it’s worth fighting for.
    (Faramir overhears this; walks up to them and kneels down in front of Frodo on one knee)</br />Faramir: I think at last we understand one another, Frodo Baggins.
    Gondorian Ranger: You know the laws of our country, the laws of your father. If you let them go, your life will be forfeit.
    Faramir: Then it is forfeit. Release them.

The Return of the King (2003)

[edit]

Sméagol and Déagol

  • Sméagol: Give us that Déagol, my love.
    Déagol: Why?
    Sméagol: Because . . . it's my birthday . . . and I wants it.
[edit]

Minas Tirith

  • Denethor: Do you think that the eyes of the White Tower are blind? I have seen more than you know. With your left hand you would use me as a shield against Mordor. And with your right you'd seek to supplant me. I know who rides with Theoden of Rohan. Oh, yes... Word has reached my ears of this Aragorn, Son of Arathorn, and I tell you now, I will not bow to this Ranger from the North, last of a ragged house long bereft of lordship!
    Gandalf: Authority is not given to you to deny the return of the King. Steward!
    Denethor: The rule of Gondor is MINE! . . . And no other's!
  • Denethor: Is there a captain here who still has the courage to do his lord's will?
    Faramir: You wish now that our places had been exchanged...that I had died and Boromir had lived.
    Denethor: Yes. (whispering) I wish that.
    Faramir: Since you are robbed of Boromir...I will do what I can in his stead.
    (Bows and turns to leave)
    Faramir: If I should return, think better of me, Father.
    Denethor: That will depend on the manner of your return.
[edit]

Rivendell

  • Elrond: I looked into your future and I saw death.
    Arwen: But there is also life! You saw there was a child! You saw my son!
    Elrond: That future is almost gone.
    Arwen: But it is not lost!
    Elrond: Nothing is certain.
    Arwen: Some things are certain. If I leave him now, I will regret it forever! It is time!
  • From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
    A light from the shadow shall spring,
    Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
    The crownless again shall be king.
    • This is from a prophetic poem in the book which Arwen only partially recites in the movie.
[edit]

Edoras

  • Now is the hour! Riders of Rohan - oaths you have taken. Now, fulfil them all — to Lord and land!! ~ Éomer
[edit]

Dunharrow

  • Aragorn: Traitors! They answer to no one.

Elrond: They will answer to the King of Gondor!

  • Elrond: The man who can wield the power of this sword can summon to him an army more deadly than any that walks this Earth! Put aside the Ranger... become who you were born to be!
    • In the book, the sword Anduril is reforged at the Fellowship's leaving from Rivendell, here it is given to Aragorn at a time of deepest crisis, before the Battle of Pelennor Fields.
  • Elrond: "I give hope to men.

Aragorn: "I keep none for myself".

  • Well, this is a thing unheard of! An Elf will go underground... where a Dwarf dare not! Ah, I'd never hear the end of it! ~ Gimli
[edit]

Battle of Pelennor Fields

  • Pippin: I didn't think it would end this way.
    Gandalf: End? No, it doesn't end here. Death is just another path . . . one which we must all take. The grey rain-curtain of this world rolls back, and all change to silver glass...
    Gandalf: ...And then you see it.
    Pippin: What, Gandalf? See what?
    Gandalf: White shores . . . and beyond. A far green country, under a swift sunrise.
    Pippin: Well, that isn't so bad.
    Gandalf: [Softly:] No... No it isn't.
    • Gandalf, describing the Undying Lands where the Ainur and the Eldar live, as a word of comfort to Pippin. In the book, Gandalf's description of death is actually a passage depicting what Frodo sees when he approaches the Undying Lands, after leaving Middle Earth with the elves.
  • Arise! Arise, riders of Théoden! Spears shall be shaken, shields be splintered; a sword-day, a red day, ere the sun rises!
    Ride now! Ride now! Ride! Ride for ruin and the world's ending! DEATH! DEATH!! DEATH!!! Forth Eorlingas! ~ King Théoden
    • King Théoden's rousing speech before the Rohirrim charge the orcs at the Battle of Pellenor Fields. Théoden, the Rohirrim, Éowen, and Meriadoc all yell Death! together.
  • Reform the line! Reform the line! Sound the charge, take them head on! ~ King Theoden
  • That still only counts as one!
    • Gimli, after Legolas takes down an oliphaunt unit
  • I am no man!
    • Éowyn's response to the Witch-king of Angmar, Lord of the Nazgûl, when he declares her a fool, and refers to the prophecies that stated no man could kill him.
  • Éowyn: I'm going to save you.
    Théoden: You already did.
    • Just before Théoden's death, he lets her know that he is proud of her and he is ready for death.
[edit]

The Last Debate

  • Gandalf: Frodo has passed beyond my sight, the darkness is deepening.
    Aragorn: If Sauron had the ring we would know it.
    Gandalf: It's only a matter of time. He's suffered a defeat, yes, but behind the walls of Mordor our enemy is regrouping.
    Gimli: let him stay there, let him rot! Why should we care?
    Gandalf: Because ten thousand orcs now stand between Frodo and Mount Doom, I've sent him to his death.
    Aragorn: No, there is still hope for Frodo. He needs time, and safe passage across the plains of Gorgoroth; we can give him that.
    Gimli: How?
    Aragorn: Draw out Sauron's armies, empty his lands. Then we gather our full strength and march on the Black Gate.
    Eomer: We cannot achieve victory through strength of arms.
    Aragorns: Not for ourselves, but we can give Frodo his chance if we keep Sauron's eye fixed upon us; keep him blind to all else that moves.
    Legolas: A diversion.
    Gimli: Certainty of death. Small chance of success.What are we waiting for?
    Gandalf: Sauron will suspect a trap, he will not take the bait.
    Aragorn: Oh I think he will.
    • The Last Debate
[edit]

The Palantir

  • Aragorn: Long have you hunted me. Long have I eluded you. No more. Behold the sword of Elendil!
    • Aragorn when speaking to Sauron through the Palantir.
[edit]

Houses of Healing

  • Éowyn: The city has fallen silent. There is no warmth left in the sun. It grows so cold.
    Faramir: It's just the damp of the first spring rain. I do not believe this darkness will endure.
[edit]

Mount Doom and Black Gates

  • Sam: (Both are overcome by exhaustion) Do you remember the Shire, Mr. Frodo? It'll be spring soon. And the orchards will be in blossom. And the birds will be nesting in the hazel thicket. And they'll be sowing the summer barley in the lower fields... and eating the first of the strawberries with cream. Do you remember the taste of strawberries?

By all that you hold dear on this good earth, I bid you stand and fight Valient Men of the West!
    • Aragorn to the troops facing the hosts of Mordor at the Black Gates.
