Фродо

I wish the ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

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. There are other forces at work in this world Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you were also meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought.

It's a pity Bilbo didn't kill him when he had the chance.

Pity? It was pity that stayed Bilbo's hand. Many that live deserve death. Some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them, Frodo? Do not be too eager to deal out death in judgment. Even the very wise cannot see all ends. My heart tells me that Gollum has some part to play yet, for good or ill before this is over. The pity of Bilbo may rule the fate of many.

You're late.

A wizard is never late, Frodo Baggins. Nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to.

Go back, Sam. I'm going to Mordor alone.

Of course you are. And I'm coming with you.

This is it.

This is what?

If I take one more step, it'll be the farthest away from home I've ever been.

Come on, Sam. Remember what Bilbo used to say: 'It's a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door. You step onto the road, and if you don't keep your feet, there's no knowing where you might be swept off to.'

Are you frightened?

Yes.

Not nearly frightened enough.

I swore to protect you.

Can you protect me from yourself?

Mordor, Gandalf, is it left or right?

Left.

There are some things that I must see to.

What things?

Questions. Questions that need answering.

What are we holding onto, Sam?

That there's some good in this world, Mr. Frodo... and it's worth fighting for.

You know I don't usually hold with foreign food, but this Elvish stuff - it's not bad.

Nothing dampens your spirits, Sam.

Those rain clouds might.

This looks strangely familiar.

Because we've been here before. We're going in circles!

Take mine. There's a few drops left.

There will be none left for the return journey.

I don't think there will be a return journey, Mr. Frodo.

Master must go inside the tunnel.

Now that I'm here, I don't think I want to.

Lt's the only way. Go in or go back.

What's this?

That is private, keep your sticky paws off! It's not ready yet!

Not ready for what?

Reading!
