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 and judgement. Even the very wise cannot see all ends.

- It's a pity Bilbo didn't kill him when he had the chance.
- 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 and judgement. Even the very wise cannot see all ends.

The Lord Of The Rings: The Two Towers

— 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.
— What are we holding on to, Sam?
— That there's some good in this world, Mr. Frodo. And it's worth fighting for.

— I wish the ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened!
— So do all that come 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.

How do you pick up the threads of an old life? How do you go on when in your heart, you begin to understand there is no going back. There are some things that time cannot mend. Some hurts that go too deep that have taken hold.

— Go back, Sam. I'm going to Mordor alone.
— Of course you are. And I'm coming with you!

The Lord Of The Rings: The Two Towers

Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate;
And though I oft have passed them by,
A day will come at last when I
Shall take the hidden paths that run
West of the Moon, East of the Sun.

J. R. R. Tolkien

— I wonder if we'll ever be put into songs or tales.
— What?
— I wonder if people will ever say: «Let's hear about Frodo and the Ring». And they'll say: «Yes! That's one of my favorite stories». «Frodo was really courageous, wasn't he, Dad?» «Yes, my boy. The most famousest of hobbits. And that's saying a lot».
— Well, you've left out one of the chief characters: «Samwise the Brave». I want to hear more about Sam. Frodo wouldn't have got far without Sam.
— Now, Mr. Frodo, you shouldn't make fun. I was being serious.
— So was I.

— Do you remember the Shire, Mr. Frodo? It will 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?
— No, Sam. I can't recall the taste of food... nor the sound of water... or the touch of grass. I'm... I'm naked in the dark. No veil between me and the Wheel of Fire. I can see Him with my waking eyes.
— Then let us be rid of it. Once and for all! Come on, Mr. Frodo. I can't carry it for you but I can carry you!

Beautiful Quotes

— If you ask it of me, I will give you the one ring.
— You offer it to me freely. I do not deny that my heart has greatly desried this. In the place of a Dark Lord, you would have a Queen! [She changes, and she seems very powerful] 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!... [She becomes normal again] I pass the test. I will diminish, and go into the west, and remain Galadriel.

— I can see the Shire. The Brandywine River. Bag End. Gandalf's fireworks. The lights in the party tree.
— Rosie Cotton dancing. She had ribbons in her hair. If ever I was to marry someone. It would have been her. It would have been her.
— I'm glad to be with you, Samwise Gamgee. Here at the end of all things.

Beautiful Quotes

— I hear it's going to be a party of special magnificence.
— You know Bilbo. He has the whole place in an uproar!
— That's a pleasant.
— Half the Shire has been invited.

— Frodo!
— I'm here, Sam
— Destroy It! Go on! Now! Throw It in the fire! What are you waiting for? Just let It go!
— The Ring is mine.
— No! No! Noooo!

Bilbo once told me, his part in this tale would end. That each of must come and go in the telling. Bilbo's story was now over. There would be no more journeys for him, save one.
