There lies the woods of Lothlórien! That is the fairest of all the dwellings of my people. There are not trees like the trees of that land. For in the autumn their leaves fall not, but turn to gold. Not till the spring comes and the new green opens do they fall and then the boughs are laden with yellow flowers; and the floor of the wood is golden and golden is it's roof, and its pillars of silver, for the bark of the trees is smooth and grey. So still our songs in Mirkwood say. My heart would be glad if I were beneath the eaves of that wood, and it were springtime!

The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring - to Boromir
1He was tall as a young tree, lithe, immensely strong, able swiftly to draw a great war-bow and shoot down a Nazgûl, endowed with the tremendous vitality of Elvish bodies, so hard and resistant to hurt that he went only in light shoes over rock or through snow, the most tireless of all the Fellowship.

Thranduil in The Hobbit - The Desolation of Smaug
You have found a way in. You seek that which would bestow upon you, the right to rule. The King's Jewel. The Arkenstone. It is precious to you beyond measure, I understand that. The gems in the Mountain that I, too, desire - white gems, of pure starlight. I offer you my help. I will let you go, if you but return what is mine.
Thranduil in The Hobbit - The Desolation of Smaug
Such is the nature of evil. Out there in the vast ignorance of the world it festers and spreads. A shadow that grows in the dark. A sleepless malice as black as the oncoming wall of night. So it ever was. So will it always be. In time all foul things come forth.
Thranduil in The Hobbit - The Desolation of Smaug
Elves are like trees, grounded and focused from the trunk down but graceful and agile on top.
Elves live in harmony with the world, and I try to do that.
Being a gentleman is a worthy goal.
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.

Sam: "I wonder if we'll ever be put into songs or tales. I wonder if people will ever say, 'Let's hear about Frodo and the Ring.' And they'll say, 'Yes, it's one of my favorite stories. Frodo was really courageous, wasn't he, dad?' 'Yes, my boy. The most famousest of Hobbits. And that's saying a lot.'"
Frodo: "You've left out on of the chief characters. Samwise the Brave. I want to hear more about Sam! Frodo wouldn't have got far without Sam..."

Arwen in The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring - to Aragorn
30Even the smallest person can change the course of the future.
It's a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door. You step onto the road, and if you don't keep your feet, there's no knowing where you might be swept off to.
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!

31Hope is like the sun. If you only believe in it when you can see it, you'll never make it through the night.
So do all who live to see such times; but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.
Without me, eyes are marbles, no darkness they see.
Faces look garbled, no flurry they feel.
No breath, no cheer, death not to fear.
Time is not spent, roses has no scent.
At nothing you can marvel without me.
