The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers quotes

Page 3 of 6

Come, Gimli!

[Panting heavily]

I'm wasted on cross-country! We dwarves are natural sprinters! Very dangerous over short distances!

Turn around. Turn around and take us south!

South? But that will... lead you past Isengard.

Yes. Exactly. If we go south we can slip past Saurman unnoticed. The closer we are to danger the father away we are from harm is the last thing he'll expect.

Hmm, that doesn't make much sence. But then you are rather small. Perhaps you're right. South it is then. I always liked going south. Somehow feels like going downhill.

[to Pippin]

Are you mad?! We'll be caught.

No, we won't. Not this time.

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.

Sam

It's me. It's your Sam. Don't you know your Sam?

I can't do this, Sam.

Sam

I know. 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.

What are we holding on to, Sam?

Sam

That there's some good in this world, Mr. Frodo. And it's worth fighting for.

Well, lad, whatever luck you live by, let's hope it lasts the night.

Your friends are with you, Aragorn.

Let's hope they last the night.

It is an army bred for a single purpose... to destroy the world of Men. They will be here by night fall.

King Th?oden

Let them come!

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.

The Ring of Power within my grasp. A chance for Faramir, Captain of Gondor, to show his quality.

[putting on a mail coat too long for him]

If I had time I'd get this adjusted...

[Aragorn and Legolas look at each other]

It's a little tight across the chest!

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.

Then it is forfeit. Release them.

Sam

I wonder if we'll ever be put into songs or tales.

What?

Sam

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."

You 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.

Sam

Now Mr. Frodo, you shouldn't make fun. I was being serious.

So was I.

Smeagol... Smèagol... Why does it cry, Smèagol?

Smèagol

Horrid men hurts us. Master tricksed us...

Of course he did. I told you he was tricksy. I told you he was false.

Smèagol

Master is our friend! My friend...

Master betrayed us!

Smèagol

No, no, not its business! Leave us alone!

Filthy little hobbitses, they stole it from us!

Smèagol

No... no...

What did they steal?

... My... PRECIOUS!!! [screams]

Merry? Merry!

Uruk-hai Captain

What is it? What do you smell?

Uruk-hai Sniffer

Man-flesh.

Aragorn.

Uruk-hai Captain

They've picked up our trail... let's move!
