Quotes from the Books


Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark Throne,
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the Darkness bind them
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.


The Fellowship of the Ring

"All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all thos who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed be the blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king."

"The heirs of Elendil do not forget all things past, and many more things than I can tell are remembered in Rivendell." (Strider)

"I am learning a lot about Sam Gamgee on this journey. First he was a conspirator, now he's a jester. He'll end up by becoming a wizard - or a warrior." (Frodo)

"Ho! Tom Bombadil , Tom Bombadillo!
By water, wood and hill, by the redd and willow,
By fire, sun and moon, harken now and hear us!
Come, Tom Bombadil, for our need is near us!" (Frodo)

"Do not meddle in the affairs of Wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger." (Gildor)

"I name you Elf-friend; and may the stars shine upon the end of your road!" (Gildor)

"Seek for the Sword that was broken:
In Imladris it dwells;
There shall be counsels taken
Stronger than Morgul-spells.
There shall be shown a token
That Doom is near at hand, For Isildur's Bane shall waken,
And the Halfling forth shall stand." (Boromir)

"The love of the Elves for their land and their works is deeper than the deeps of the Sea, and their regret is undying and cannot ever be assuaged. Yet they will cast all away rather than submit to Sauron: for they nkow him now. For the fate of Lothlorien you are not answerable, but only for the doing of your own task. Yet i could wish, were it of any avail, That the One Ring had never been wrought, or had remained for ever lost." (Galadriel)
