The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King quotes
Page 6 of 8Give me your hand! Take my hand! No! Don't you let go. Don't let go. Reach!
They guard it because they have hope. Faith and fading hope that one day it will flower. That a king will come and this city will be as it once was before it fell into decay. The old wisdom that was borne out of the West was forsaken. Kings made tombs more splendid than the houses of the living and counted the names of their descent dearer than the names of their sons. Childless lords sat in aged halls musing on heraldry or in high, cold towers asking questions of the stars. And so the people of Gondor fell into ruin. The line of Kings failed, the White Tree withered, and the rule of Gondor was given over to lesser men.
: Now, listen carefully. Lord Denethor is Boromir's father. To give him news of his beloved son's death would be most unwise. And do not mention Frodo, or the Ring. And say nothing of Aragorn either. [hesitates] In fact, it's better if you don't speak at all, Peregrin Took.
Let him go, you filth! Let him go! You will not touch him again! Come here and finish it!
Hold them back! Do not give into fear! Stand to your posts! FIGHT!
And thus it was, the Fourth Age of Middle-earth began. And the Fellowship of the Ring, though eternally bound by friendship and love... was ended.
Arise! Arise, riders of Th?oden! Spears shall be shaken, shields shall be splintered - a sword-day, a red day, ere the sun rises! Ride now! Ride now! Ride! Ride for ruin, and the world's ending![The riders yell for battle] Forth Éorlingas!
Clever hobbits to climb so high!
For Frodo.
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.
Long have you hunted me. Long have I eluded you. No more. [he holds Andúril up to the palantír] Behold the sword of Elendil!
My friends... you bow to no one.
Naughty little fly! Why does it cry? Caught in a web! Soon you'll be...eaten.
