Which character in "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King" said...

So you think you are a fan of "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King." Let's see how well you know it. Match the following lines with the characters that spoke them. Can you get them all right?

  1. Our enemy is ready, his full strength gathered. Not only orcs, but men as well. Legions of Haradrim from the south, mercenaries from the coast, all shall answer Mordor's call. This will be the end of Gondor as we know it. Here the hammer stroke will fall hardest. If the river is taken, if the garrison at Osgiliath fails, then the last defence of this city will be gone.

  2. What is the house of Rohan, but a thatched barn where brigands drink in the reek, and their brats roll on the floor with the dogs?! The victory at Helm's Deep does not belong to you, Théoden Horse-master! You are a lesser son of greater sires.

  3. 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 forgots the taste of bread, the sound of trees, the softness of the wind. We even forgot our own name. My precious.

  4. The wisdom that was borne out of the West was forsaken. Kings made tombs more splendid than the houses of the living, childless lords sat in high halls counting the long names of their ancestors more dear than the names of their sons, or in high cold towers asking questions of the stars. The line of Kings failed, the White Tree withered, and the rule of Gondor fell to lesser men.

  5. [ambushing the hobbits on the slopes of Mount Doom] Clever hobbits to climb so high!

  6. [after the death of Saruman] Send word to all our allies. And to every corner of Middle earth that still stands free. The Enemy moves against us. We need to know where he will strike.

  7. Form ranks, you maggots, form ranks! Pikesmen in front, archers behind!

  8. [Upon taking western Osgiliath] The age of Men is over. The time of the Orc has come.

  9. [to Saruman] We shall have peace. We shall have peace, when you answer for the burning of the Westfold, and the children who lie dead there! We shall have peace, when the lives of the soldiers, whose bodies were hewn even as they lay dead against the gates of the Hornburg, are avenged! When you hang from a gibbet, for the sport of your own crows, we shall have peace!

  10. 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.

  11. Do not give in to fear!

  12. [Ordering the Gondorians to respond fire] Send these foul things into the abyss!
