A day may come when the courage of men fails, when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship, but it is not this day.
ARAGORN, The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King
The world is changed. I feel it in the water. I feel it in the earth. I smell it in the air. Much that once was, is lost, for none now live who remember it.
GALADRIEL, The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring
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.
SAM, The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers
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, The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring
Men are weak. The Blood of Numenor is all but spent, its pride and dignity forgotten. It is because of Men the Ring survives.
ELROND, The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring
Do not trust to hope. It has forsaken these lands.
EOMER, The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers
Those without swords can still die upon them.
EOWYN, The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers
