Favourite Quote.
We've got some of these in the other forums so I thought we should have one here.
What's your favourite line from the movie. Where is it and who said it. Why do you like it. I have two. My first is Aragorn's line(s) at the Black Gate. 'Sons of Gondor, of Rohan, my brothers, I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me. A day may come, when the courage of men fails. When we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship, but it is not this day. An hour of wolves and shattered shields as the age of men comes crashing down. But it is not this day this day we fight. By all that you hold dear on this good earth, I bid you stand, Men of the West!' And my second is Sam's at Osgiliath afte he saved Frodo, but that's even longer than the Aragorn one so I won't write it down. What are yours?

I like the quotes by Theoden at the charge of the Rohirrim. "Sheild splintered, spears shaken" that one!

My fave LotR quotes are in my sig, but they're in the book, and they're not what you asked for... my favorite quote in the movie is:
Quote:

"'I would,' said Faramir. And he took her in his arms and kissed her under the sunlit sky, and he cared not that they stood high upon the walls in the sight of many. And many indeed saw them and the light that shone about them as they came down from the walls and went hand in hand to the Houses of Healing." |

well mine is aragorn's line at the end of FOTR
GIMLI: Then it has all been in vain, the fellowship has failed. ARAGORN: Not if we hold true to each other we will not leave merry and pippin to torment and death, we travel light, Lets Go Hunt Some Orc! but I also Like Aragorns speech before the black gate a lot and theoden's speech And pretty much every line sam has in the trilogy especially his line about the great stories |

if you are talking strictly movie quotes, the 'white shores etc' quote is actually the first paragraph of Fog on the Barrow-Downs, but
phidgity-me-sprazzlephatz and so on FotR: It is in Men that we must place our trust now. [Gandalf] TTT: I think at last that we understand one-another, Frodo Baggins. [Faramir] RotK: For Frodo![Aragorn] You shall not enter Gondor.[Aragorn (EE)] plus many others besides |

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: "My dear Hobbits, my work is now finished. Here at last, at 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." |

I'll have to agree with Star on that one. The line by Gandalf is hands down my favorite quote in the movie.
