Not sure if there's a thread on this already, didn’t find any…
So anywho, back to my question
Do any of you use quotes from either the movies or books in everyday life?
This is my list: (sorry if it’s a bit long  )
~I’m slightly annoyed at the beginning of The Fellowship (book that is) when Tolkien carries on with "Concerning Hobbits" when ever someone babbles incessantly (like my Dad in geek-speak-mode or my Grams) My Mum and I go “Concerning Hobbits!!!!”
~Bilbo's "I don’t know half of you half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve."
~I use the "box line" from TTT, especially around my 5 foot nothing BFF
~When ever I don't want to share something I say "myyy precioussssssss,"
~When ever I walk past the sushi counter in the grocery store sing Gollum's little song when he's in the forbidden pool. And the whole "give it to us raw and wiggling," bit
~when ever anyone hits me I go "White Light! White Light!". It's from the TTT appendices.
~This isn’t exactly a quote…But, when I’m gardening I have a tendency to talk to the plants and trees in Elvish (Quenya) and hope the willow in the back yard will sprout legs and start walking around
and all sorts of stuff that I can't think of at the moment...
"For now the Kindler, Varda, the Queen of the stars,
from Mount Everwhite has uplifted her hands like clouds,
and all paths are drowned deep in shadow;
and out of a grey country darkness lies
on the foaming waves between us,
and mist covers the jewels of Calacirya for ever.
Now lost, lost to those of the East is Valimar!"
