Part I
Sauron: I wonder why nobody likes me?
Elrond to Frodo: Hey, cool Ring! Want to trade?
Glorfindel: It’s my horse. Nobody, but NOBODY rides him but me.
Treebeard: I’m sick and tired of trees. I want to go to the beach. Hoom.
Gimli to Treebeard: My axe? It’s for chopping firewood, why?
Sam at Cirith Ungol: Oh boy! I finally get a turn!
Galadriel: Are you kidding? No one comes in here but Elves. Toss the lot of them.
Any hobbit: Oh, no thank you! I couldn't eat another bite!
Sign on Bag End front gate: Come on in!
Sam to Galadriel: *raises eyebrow* A box of dirt. I don't suppose
you've got any other rubbish you'd like me to take off your hands while
I'm at it.
Tom Bombadil: Before you leave, my lads, Let me relate my life story, in case you have any questions-o.
Faramir: Ha! You fell for it! You halflings are so gullible.
Elrond: I don't know.
Frodo: It's a pity Bilbo didn't kill him when he had the chance.
Gandalf: Good point.

Gollum: Well, Precious, since you obviously don't return my affections, I think it's time for me to move on.
Aragorn: Anyone know where we are? I haven’t the slightest idea.
Frodo: You know, Sam, I really miss Lobelia.
Legolas: I’m so sorry Gimli, we Elves really have been untrustworthy, haven’t we?
Pippin: Actually, on second thought, maybe I shouldn't do this.
Sam: There's no way we'll ever get out of this, Mr. Frodo. Give up, we're doomed.
Gandalf: Well done, Pippin!
Eowyn: Boy am I glad us girls don’t have to fight in that yucky war.
Denethor: Whatever you want to do is fine with me.
Arwen to the Nazgul: You want him? Okay.
Elrond: I know, let's have Pippin go along with them. What harm could he do?
Gandalf to Saruman: Nice place you have here! I bet the view from the roof is really something to see.
Sauron to Frodo: Oh no problem, I didn’t mind you borrowing it at all!
Legolas: Let’s linger here for a while.
Pippin: Be careful.
Saruman: One of the halflings carries something of great value, so be sure you don’t bother them.

Tom Bombadil: Enjoy your lunch, Old Man Willow.
Aragorn: On second thought, let's not go to Minas Tirith.
Boromir: The Ring? Oh, no thanks.
Tom Bombadil: Get out! This is private property!
Cirdan: Ship? What ship?
Gollum: Wow, that speech therapy really paid off, my precious.
Eowyn: Aragron and Arwen are SUCH a cute couple!
Denethor: Wow! That was a great idea to give the Ring to some halfling!
I never would have thought of it! That Gandalf sure is smart!
Elrond: Let’s send Bilbo, he started this mess, he can finish it!
Gimli: Maybe I should shave...

Frodo: Could I have some mushrooms?
Farmer Maggott: Sure! I'd be more than willing to give these away!

Legolas to Gandalf on the stairs ~ Don't jump!
Legolas to Aragorn after the ranger had returned from cliff diving ~ Show off!
From Icarus:
Peter Jackson (planning for Helm's Deep): back when I finished that
Medieval Tactics Masters Degree, this is the way we did it...
Frodo: Hey guys, someone's coming down the road! Should we invite them to share some mushrooms?
King of the Dead: :cough::KAFF: Don't even try to escape. The chains are much too strong...
Aragorn at the Black Gates: Impossible! Maybe if I had a month to
plan... but my sword, your bow, and his axe against 60 men? If we only
had a wheelbarrow!
Faramir and Eowyn as the host rides out: Have fun storming the castle!
From Aatui, who has apparently been watching a certain show...
"Frodo to Sam (outside the gates of Mordor): Look, if we built this large wooden badger.. – Gollum85"
I have to say I love this one. How about these:
Sauron (once the ring has been destroyed): Come back, you pansies! I'll bite your legs off!
Legolas (to Gimli at the council of Elrond): Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries!
Boromir (to Aragorn): What?! You think you can be king just 'cause some elf handed you a broken sword?
Frodo (when Boromir is trying to take the ring): Help, help! I'm being repressed!
From gustaf:
Elrond to Aragorn: Go ahead. You can take Arwen...I mean she means
pretty much nothing but a nuisance anyways. I'm running out of money,
you know; raising kids uses up a ton.
Eowyn: What?! Aragorn?? He is just sooooooo smelly. Ugh.
Denethor: I hate you Boromir...know why? Cause I have to have partiality and I love your brother, so that puts you way down.

Lines They Would Never Say: Part II
Gandalf on Caradhras: I must have something to work on. I cannot burn snow!
Sam: Well, we have this pony here - he ought to burn pretty well. And
that would take care of dinner too! We could make a pretty good sauce
for him out of that miruvor - Whaddaya say?
Eowyn: No longer do I desire to be a queen.
Faramir: That is well, for I am not a king.
Eowyn: What the heck are you anyway?
Faramir: A Steward.
Eowyn: Forget it! I may have gotten over wanting to be a queen, but no
way in creation am I going to replace it with being a Stewardess!
Aragorn: I would ask advice from fair Ioreth, if we could get her to speak, but she never makes a sound!
Gandalf: Think you that Wormtongue had poison only for Theoden's ears? He obviously had some for his nose as well!
Merry: As a father you shall be to me.
Theoden: No thanks - I already have enough children to deal with.
Gimli: I will go with you even on the Paths of the Dead, and to whatever end they may lead.
Legolas: Are you out of your mineral-addled mind?! No way am I setting foot in that hole!
Gimli: Hmmmph. Well, if you're not going, neither am I!
*turns around and stumps back down the mountain*
Gandalf: Gollum still has some part to play. I am just so tickled to
hear that Frodo has him for a guide! Isn't that just wonderful news?
Lobelia to Lotho: Wasn't that just the sweetest gesture of Bilbo's, to
leave everything to Frodo? What a wonderful family we have!
Farmer Cotton to Ruffian: You aren't wanted here.
Ruffian: *tears in eyes* Oh, I'm so sorry! We had no idea! We'll gather
up our things and go, right away. Let us know if there's anything we
can do to make up for it.
Merry: Are you going to bury me?
Pippin: Well, sure! I mean if you really want me to. You do kind of stink and all. Got a shovel?
Frodo: I'm thirsty, Sam.
Sam: Tough luck, Mr. Frodo - this water bottle is mine, remember?
Haldir: Welcome to Lothlorien! It's so good to see a dwarf here - we haven't had one in ages! Come on in!

Goldberry: You are still afraid, perhaps, of mist and tree-shadows and
deep water, and untame things. You're pretty smart cookies.
Treebeard: Hurry up, you slowpokes! Hoom!
Frodo: Go back, Sam! I'm going to Mordor alone!
Sam: Of course you are - you wouldn't catch me going there - nuh-uh, like, no way! What do you take me for, an imbecile?
Pippin: What about breakfast?
Aragorn: You've already had it.
Pippin: But what about second breakfast?
Aragorn: Oh, right! Is it that time already? Here let me help you shake out that tablecloth.
Hob Hayward: Isn't it great how Sharkey's men took away all that pipeweed? So sweet of them to help us kick that nasty habit.
Eowyn: (waving goodbye to the departing army)Don't worry about me! I'm
going to bake cookies, crochet doilies and redecorate while you're off
at that boring old war. Have fun!
Sam: You know, Ted Sandyman was right. You are cracked, Mr. Frodo.
Denethor (looking at Faramir): Oh, it's just a little fever. He'll be fine.
Aragorn: What's it called? Why would I call it anything? - it's just a sword.
