Gandalf? That was what they used to call me. Gandalf the Grey. That was my name. I am Gandalf the White. And I come back to you now at the turn of the tide.

Cold be heart and hand and bone. Cold be travelers far from home. They do not see what lies ahead when sun has failed and moon is dead.

Aragorn: "You've already had it."
Pippin: "We've had one, yes. What about second breakfast."
Merry: "I don't think he knows about second breakfast, Pip."
Pippin: "What about elevenses? Luncheon? Afternoon tea? Dinner? Supper?"

Home is behind, the world ahead
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night
Until the stars are all alight

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 woes and shattered shields when 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!

Oh, you can search far and wide
You can drink the whole town dry
But you'll never find a beer so brown
As the one we drink in our hometown
You can drink your fancy ales
You can drink 'em by the flagon
But the only brew for the brave and true
Comes from The Green Dragon

Saruman: "We must join with Sauron. It would be wise, my friend."
Gandalf: "Tell me, friend, when did Saruman the Wise abandon reason for madness?"

Your love of the the Halfling's leaf has clearly slowed your mind.

Sam: "I haven't been dropping no eaves, sir, honest."

I was expecting you sometime last week. Not that it matters. You come and go as you please. Always have and always will. You've caught me a bit unprepared I'm afraid. Uh, we've only got cold chicken, a bit of pickle... there's some cheese here... oh, no. Er, we've got raspberry jam, an apple tart... oh, no, we're alright! I've just found some sponge cake.

Frodo: "Before you came along, we Bagginses were very well thought of. Never had any adventures or did anything unexpected."
Gandalf: "If you're referring to the incident with the dragon - I was barely involved. All I did was give your uncle a little nudge out of the door."

Because 10,000 Orcs now stand between Frodo and Mount Doom. I've sent him to his death.

Far too eager and curious for a Hobbit. Most unnatural.

One does not simply walk into Mordor. Its black gates are guarded by more than just orcs. There is evil there that does not sleep. And the Great Eye is ever-watchful. It is a barren wasteland riddled with fire and ash and dust. The very air you breathe is a poisonous fume. Not with ten-thousand men could you do this. It is folly.

It is a gift. A gift to the foes of Mordor. Why not use this ring? Give Gondor the weapon of the enemy. Let us use it against him.

The year is 3434 of the Second Age. Here follows the account of Isildur, High King of Gondor, and the finding of the ring of power. It has come to me. The One Ring. It shall be an heirloom of my kingdom. All those who follow in my bloodline shall be bound to its fate, for I will risk no hurt to the ring. It is precious to me though I buy it with great pain.

We long have feared that under Caradhras a terror slept. But had I known that the Dwarves had stirred up this evil in Moria again, I would have forbidden you to pass the northern borders, you and all that went with you. And if it were possible, one would say that at the last Gandalf fell from wisdom into folly, going needlessly into the net of Moria.

You fight like a Jedi. You fight as if this were your only weapon. It is not. The Sith's weapon is not the lightsaber. It is the dark side of the Force. And the dark side touches everything. The saber is merely a symbol. A flame, signifying the great blaze of the dark side. The inferno that consumes all who come against it.

Anyone can fire a blaster. Very few can safely and skillfully wield a lightsaber. Everyone in the galaxy knows this to be true. We want our opponents to know that we use a weapon that requires intention. Training, precision and choice. The lightsaber symbolizes the care with which we approach our gifts through the Force and the care with which we wield them. It reminds others that while we could do more... we very purposefully do not.

They fight beside you because they would not be parted from you. Because they love you!

Éowyn: "Do what you will; but I will hinder it, if I may."
Witch-king of Angmar: "Hinder me? Thou fool. No living man may hinder me!"
Éowyn: "But no living man am I! You look upon a woman. Éowyn I am, Eomund's daughter."

He has just as much reason to go to war as you do. Why can he not fight for those he loves?
