Here are some of my favourite quotes!

Gandalf: "Ooh. The long expected party! So how is the old rascal? I hear there`s got to be a party of special magnificence."

Frodo: "You know Bilbo. He`s got the hole place in an uproar."

Gandalf: "Hmm. Now well that should please him, hmmm"

Frodo: "Half the Shire`s been invited!"

Gandalf: "Good gracious me!"

*****

Gandalf: "If you`re referring to the incident with the dragon, I was barely involved. All I did was give your uncle a little nudge out of the door."

Frodo: "Whatever you did, you`ve been officially labeled a disturber of peace."

*****

Bilbo: "I was expecting you here last week! Not that it matters, you come and go as you please. Always have done and always will. You caught me a bit unprepared, I`m afraid. We have some old chicken and pickles...Here`s some cheese - oh no it won`t do. There we got brussels and jam and...Not much for afterlunch - oh no! We`re all right. I have some cake. I can make you some eggs if you like, oh Gandalf?

Bilbo: "There I was, at the mercy of three monstrous trolls, and they were all arguing amongst themselves about how they were going to cook us, whether it be turned on a spit or whether they should sit on us one by one and squash us into jelly."

Bilbo: "They spent so much time arguing the weather to`s and why-fore`s that when the sun`s first light cracked over the top of the trees and poof!"

******

Merry: "You`re supposed to stick it in the ground!"

Pippin: "It is in the ground"

Merry: "Outside!"

Pippin: "It was your idea!"

******

Gandalf: "Meriadoc Brandybuck and Peregrin Took. I might have know."

******

Bilbo: "I don`t know half of you half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve."

******

Gandalf: "Confound it all, Samwise Gamgee! You`ve been evesdropping?"

Sam: "I have been droppin no eves, Sir, honest! I was cutting the grass under the window there, if you 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-n-n-nothing important. That is I heard a good deal about a ring and a dark lord and something about the end of the world. But please, Mister Gandalf, Sir, don´t hurt me. Don`t turn me into anythin` unnatural!"

Gandalf: "No, perhaps not. I have thought of a better use for you..."

******

Merry: "Dunno why he is so upset. It`s only a couple of carrots!"

Pippin: "And some cabbages. And those few bags of potatoes that we lifted last week and, and the mushrooms the week before!"

Merry: "Yes, Pippin! My point is, he is clearly overreactin`! Run!"

******

Sam: "A shortcut to what?"

Pippin: "Mushrooms!"

******

Pippin: "What`s that?"

Merry: "This, my friend, is a pint!"

Pippin: "It comes in pints? I`m getting one!"

Sam: "You had a whole half already!"

******

Pippin: "What about breakfast?"

Strider: "We already had it!"

Pippin: "We´ve had one, yes. What about second breakfast?"

Merry: "Don`t think he knows about second breakfast, Pip!"

Pippin: "What about elevenses? Luncheon? Afternoon tea? Dinner? Supper? He knows about them, doesn`t he?"

Merry: "I wouldn`t count on it!"

******

Arwen: "Lasto beth nin, tolo dan na ngalad."

******

Frodo: "I miss the Shire. I spent all my childhood, pretending I was off somewhere else...off with you in one of your adventures!" <realizes sadly> "My own adventure turned out to be quite different!"

******

Aragorn: "If by my life or death, I can protect you, I will. You have my sword!"

Legolas: "And you have my bone!"

Gimli: "And my axe!"

Boromir: "You carry the fates of us all, little one. If this is indeed the will of the council, then Gondor will see it done!"

Sam: "Heh! Mr. Frodo is not goin` anywhere without me!"

Elrond: "No, indeed. It is hardly possible to seperate you even when he is summoned to a secret council and you are not!"

Pippin and Merry: "Wait! We are coming too!"

Merry: "You`d have to send us home tied up in a sack to stop us!"

Pippin: "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?"
