Movie quotes

  • (..) We did what we set out to do. The Ring will be safe in Rivendell. I am ready to go home. His strength returns. That wound will never fully heal. He will carry it the rest of his life. And yet to have come so far still bearing the Ring... ...the Hobbit has shown extraordinary resilience to its evil. (..)
