He [Bilbo] used often to say there was only one Road; that it was like a great river: its springs were at every doorstep, and every path was its tributary. 'It’s a dangerous business, Frodo, going out...
And as the captains gazed south to the Land of Mordor, it seemed to them that, black against the pall of cloud, there rose a huge shape of shadow, impenetrable, lightning-crowned, filling all the sky....
Oh! That was poetry! said Pippin. Do you really mean to start before the break of day?
What would you here, unhappy mortal, and for what cause have you left your own land to enter this, which is forbidden to such as you? Can you show reason why my power should not be laid on you in heav...
Come, Mr. Frodo!' he cried. 'I can't carry it for you, but I can carry you.
Where are you going, Master?' cried Sam, though at last he understood what was happening.'To the Havens, Sam,' said Frodo.'And I can't come.''No, Sam. Not yet, anyway, not further than the Havens. Tho...

The rule of no realm is mine, neither of Gondor nor any other, great or small. But all worthy things that are in peril as the world now stands, those are my care. And for my part, I shall not wholly f...

If all the seven stones were laid out before me now, I should shut my eyes and put my hands in my pockets.

Is there no escape then?' said Frodo, looking around wildly. 'If I move I shall be seen and hunted! If I stay, I shall draw them to me!
At the hill’s foot Frodo found Aragorn, standing still and silent as a tree; but in his hand was a small golden bloom of elanor, and a light was in his eyes. He was wrapped in some fair memory: and as...
They made for his noise far quicker than he had expected. They were frightfully angry. Quite apart from the stones no spider has ever like being called Attercop, and Tomnoddy of course, is insulting t...
