The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King

"The Ring is mine! ( no audio )"

"And thus it was a Fourth Age of Middle-earth began. And the Fellowship of the Ring, though eternally bound by friendship and love, was ended."

"Thirteen months to the day since Gandalf sent us on our long journey, we found ourselves looking upon a familiar sight: We were home."

"How do you pick up the threads of an old life? How do you go on, when in your heart you begin to understand...there is no going back? There are some things that time cannot mend. Some hurts that go too deep, that have taken hold."

"I do not fear death."

"Sons of Gondor! Of Rohan! My brothers! I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me! A day may come when the courage of men fails, when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship. But it is not this day. An hour of wolves and shattered shields when the age of Men comes crashing down! But it is not this day! This day we fight! By all that you hold dear on this good Earth, I bid you stand! Men of the West!"

"For Frodo."

"[after being crowned as King of Gondor] This day does not belong to one man, but to all. Let us together rebuild this world that we may share in the days of peace."

"[last words to the four Hobbits of the Fellowship, following Mordor's defeat] My friends...you bow to no one."

"[To Pippin, in the extended edition] They guard it because they have hope. Faith and fading hope that one day it will flower. That a king will come and this city will be as it once was before it fell into decay. The old wisdom that was borne out of the West was forsaken. Kings made tombs more splendid than the houses of the living and counted the names of their descent dearer than the names of their sons. Childless lords sat in aged halls musing on heraldry or in high, cold towers asking questions of the stars. And so the people of Gondor fell into ruin. The line of Kings failed, the White Tree withered, and the rule of Gondor was given over to lesser men."

"[to Pippin]: Now, listen carefully. Lord Denethor is Boromir's father. To give him news of his beloved son's death would be most unwise. And do not mention Frodo, or the Ring. And say nothing of Aragorn either. [hesitates] In fact, it's better if you don't speak at all, Peregrin Took."

"We come to it at last; the great battle of our time."

"The board is set. The pieces are moving."

"Send these foul beasts into the abyss!"

"This is no place for a Hobbit!"

"[after Pippin kills an Orc] Guard of the Citadel, indeed."

"[to soldiers panicking from the attacking Ringwraiths] Hold them back! Do not give into fear! Stand to your posts! FIGHT!"

"You are soldiers of Gondor! No matter what comes through those gates, you will stand your ground!"

"There's plenty for the both of us. May the best dwarf win."

"[after Legolas takes down an oliphaunt and its crew] That still only counts as one!"

"Certainty of death. Small chance of success. What are we waiting for?"

"[after Aragorn kills the envoy at the Black Gate; extended edition only] I guess that concludes negotiations..."

"They cursed us. 'Murderer', they called us. They cursed us, and drove us away! And we wept, precious. We wept to be so alone. And we forgot the taste of bread, the sound of trees, the softness of the wind. We even forgot our own name. My precious."

"Naughty little fly! Why does it cry? Caught in a web! Soon you'll be...eaten."

"Clever hobbits to climb so high!"

"[to Shelob, who's caught Frodo] Let him go, you filth! Let him go! You will not touch him again! Come here and finish it!"

"[kills an Orc] That's for Frodo! [kills another Orc] That's for the Shire! [kills the third Orc] And that's for my old Gaffer!!!"

"[to Frodo in Mount Doom] Give me your hand! Take my hand! No! Don't you let go. Don't let go. Reach!"

"[last lines] Well, I'm back."

"Denethor: [to Gandalf before dropping the torch to set himself and Faramir on fire; extended edition only] You may triumph on the field of battle for a day, but against the power that is risen in the East, there is no victory!"

"Arwen: From the ashes, a fire shall be woken. A light from the shadow shall spring. Renewed shall be blade that was broken. The crownless again shall be king."

"Legolas: [talking to Aragorn] The stars are veiled. Something stirs in the East, a sleepless malice...The Eye of the Enemy is moving. [reacts with horror as he senses Pippin looking into the Palantir] He is here!"

"Éomer: [to Éowyn, about Merry] You know as little of war as that Hobbit. When the fear takes him, and the blood, and the screams, and the horrors of battle take hold, do you think he would stand and fight? He would flee. And it would be right to do so. War is the province of Men, Éowyn."

"Theoden: Reform the line. Reform the line! Sound the charge; take them head on! Charge!!"

"Gothmog: The Age of Men is over. The time of the Orc has come."
