I hate to ask for a hint, but though I know that line, I can't find it anywhere. Could you narrow the search down a bit?

It's in the first half of the Return of the King.

Found it!
He says that if you would prefer it to standing me on my head, you might show me around the city for a while and cheer my loneliness.

Next:
All that country is alive with our hunters now.

Pippin, in the Scouring of the Shire. Next sentance: "Behind, the trapped Men in the lane, still about four score ..."

my turn now!
"not willingly," said Gimli.

i will give hints if you need them but i don't make the mistake of underestimating you any more

it's from Return of the King

Found it.
For upon that road I was put to shame: Gimli Gloin's son, who had deemed himself more tough than Men and hardier under earth than any Elf.

It was too sore a trial!

This is Faramir speaking of Boromir when Sam spoke of the Ring. "...How you have increased my sorrow, you two strange wanderers from a far country, bearing the peril of Men!"

Here's one:

"My dear old hobbit, you don't allow for the inquisitiveness of friends."

Easy enough

I have known about the existence of the Ring for years - before Bilbo went away, in fact....

They did not have to wait long.

evil ambiguous quote! It could be anywhere. Give hints!

Return of the King (I remembered to use a bookmark this time to find it again).

'The orcs were going at a great pace.'

For Andustar:
RE (first message of thread) (the person who did it with me by e mail gave me 'but they do' with no hints at all and it was impossible)
Vol. 2
'They can move very quickly, if they are angry.'

You stand still looking at the weather, maybe, or listening to the reustling of the wind, and then suddenly you find that you are in the middle of a wood with great groping trees all around you.

Next:
I wonder what he saw there?

RE: I wonder what he saw there?
But he returned by the same way, and went down the hill again.

Findulias, I did not give another line. I was answering what Andustar claimed was impossible. But your next line confirmed the answer. I was simply awaiting confirmation of my answer to your line. I am guessing that your giving of a new line was confirmation.

Upon confirmation of the new answer re:I wonder what he saw there:
Next line in game, still remaining in Vol. 2, but as there is 1 instance in Vol. 1 of this same sentence, it would also be acceptable.

Line:
'Sam said nothing.'

Hey, I found it impossible... I didn't appreciate quite how well you guys know the books that's why I took that back and gave no hints for some of my quotes

But do you have the next line?
From either Volume will work as an answer.

'Not much use is it, Sam?' said Strider. 'But the time is near when it will be forged anew.'
Sam said nothing.
'Well,' said Strider, 'with Sam's permission we will call that settled.'



'My heart will be glad, even in the winter,' said Aragorn.

Volume 1 answer works.

That was Aragorn about going to Lorien. Next sentance: 'But it lies many miles away. Let us hasten!'

my quote: (two sentances, i know)

'Three times!' he whimpered. 'Three times is a threat'

hmmm... I give no hints for now but i will if you need them

They feel us here, they feel the Precious.

Frodo was alive but taken by the Enemy.
