Here are mine:
"Even the smallest person can change the course of the future." - Galadriel, The Fellowship of the Ring. "Such is oft the course of deeds that move the wheels of the world: small hands do them because they must, while the eyes of the great are elsewhere." - Elrond, The Fellowship of the Ring. "Though here at journey's end I lie in darkness buried deep, beyond all towers strong and high, beyond all mountains steep, above all shadows rides the Sun and Stars forever dwell: I will not say the Day is done, nor bid the Stars farewell." - Samwise Gamgee, The Return of the King. "The Road goes ever on and on, down from the door where it begun. Now far ahead the Road has gone, and I must follow if I can. Pursuing it with eager feet, until it joins some larger way, where many paths and errands meet, and whither then? I cannot say." - The Road Goes Ever On.

"Now for wrath, now for ruin, and a red dawn!!! Forth, Eorlingas!" -Theoden in the Hornburg
"Where is the horse and the rider..." -Theoden's speech in Helm's Deep
So many little things that people say that I love! Not sure if these are in the book as well as the movie... *whoops*

I also like: "All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us." - Gandalf, The Fellowship of the Ring. ^I'm not sure if it's worded exactly like that in the book, but I don't want to get up and check. Arien Elensar, the second one is probably my most favourite as well!

"I would rather share one lifetime with you, than face all the ages of this worls alone." - Arwen, Fellowship of the Ring ((luv that scene!! <33)) "I do not say; do not weep. For not all tears are evil." - Gandalf in Gray Havens "My dear Sam...You can not always be torn in two...You will have to be one and whole for many years. You have so much to enjoy... And to be, and to do...Your part in this story will go on." - Frodo's voice in the ending of ROTK for Sam who's going home These are all from the movies... Can't actually even quote from the book because my version of it isn't english

That is so cool!

Yes! I really love that second one because it has so much truth and really shows how wise the elves truly are.
I also just LOVE that Gandalf quote. I will honestly say when I first heard it, it answered alot of lifes questions, for me at least.

Well, I can't exactly tell you quotes in English but I can in Bulgarian and that won't help you much , so here're my favourite movie quotes (from each movie): FOTR: 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. -- Gandalf TTT: It’s like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were. And sometimes you didn’t want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? Those were the stories that stayed with you. That meant something. Even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back only they didn’t. They kept going. Because they were holding on to something. -- Sam ROTK: Death is just another path. One that we all must take. The gray rain curtain of this world rolls back, and all turns to silver glass. And then you see it... White shores. And beyond, the far green country, under a swift sunrise. -- Gandalf

That Gandalf quote has really taught me a lesson in life. After hearing it a couple of times it kind of answered some of lifes questions for me.

Ok...here are a few of my favorites from FOTR:
[of the Wood Elves] Frodo: "They're going to the harbor beyond the White Towers. To the Grey Havens." Sam: "They're leaving Middle Earth." Frodo: "Never to return." Sam: "I don't know why...it makes me sad."
"I amar prestar aen. The world is changed. Han mathon ne nen. I feel it in the waters. Han mathon ne chae. I feel it in the earth. A han noston ned 'wilith. I smell it in the air. Much that once was is lost, for none now live who remember it."
"And some things that should not have been forgotten were lost. History became legend, legend became myth and for two and a half thousand years, the Ring passed out of all knowledge" ~ Galadriel
"Tell me friend. Since when did Saruman the wise abandon reason for madness?" ~ Gandalf
I think that's enough for now ;D
