Sam quotes from The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003)

Sam

Haven't you had any sleep, Mr. Frodo? I've gone and had too much. It must be getting late.

Frodo

No, it isn't. It isn't midday yet. The days are growing darker.

Sam

Here.

Frodo

What about you?

Sam

I'm not hungry. Leastways, not for lembas bread.

Frodo

Sam...

Sam

Alright. We don't have that much left. We have to be careful or we're going to run out. You go ahead and eat that, Mr Frodo. I've rationed it. There should be enough.

Frodo

For what?

Sam

The journey home.

Sam

Do you remember the Shire, Mr. Frodo? It'll 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. Eating the first of the strawberries with cream. Do you remember the taste of strawberries?

Frodo

No, Sam. I can't recall the taste of food, nor the sound of water, nor the touch of grass. Instead I'm... naked in the dark. There's nothing. No veil between me and the wheel of fire! I can see him... with my waking eyes!

Sam

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! Come on!

Sam

Destroy it! Now! Throw it in the fire!

Sam

What are you waiting for? Just let it go!

Frodo

The Ring is mine.

Sam

NO!!

Frodo

It's gone! It's done!

Sam

Yes, Mr. Frodo. It's over now.

Frodo

I can see the Shire. The Brandywine River. Bag End. Gandalf's fireworks, the lights, the party tree.

Sam

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!

Frodo

I'm glad to be with you, Samwise Gamgee. Here, at the end of all things.

Sam

There and Back Again - A Hobbit's Tale by Bilbo Baggins and The Lord of the Rings by Frodo Baggins. You've finished it!

Frodo

Not quite. There's room for a little more.

Gandalf

Farewell, my brave Hobbits. My work is now finished. Here at last, on the shores of the sea, comes the end of our Fellowship. I will not say "do not weep", for not all tears are an evil. It is time, Frodo.

Sam

What does he mean?

Frodo

We set out to save the Shire, Sam, and it has been saved... but not for me.

Sam

You don't mean that! You can't leave!

Frodo

The last pages are for you, Sam.

Frodo

My dear Sam. You cannot always be torn in two. You have to be one and whole for many years. You have so much to enjoy, and to be, and to do. Your part in the journey will go on.

Sam

Well, I'm back.

Sam

Mr. Frodo, what is it?

Frodo

It's been four years to the day since Weathertop, Sam. It's never really healed.

Sam

There and Back Again, A Hobbit's Tale by Bilbo Baggins. And The Lord of the Rings, by Frodo Baggins. [smiles] You finished it.

Frodo

Not quite. [closes the Red Book] There's room for little more.
