No--not Saruman, although the speaker is connected to him. (Not Grima) Think much less lofty in rank. It's actually part of an exchange between two baddies.
Many live who deserve death; some die who deserve life--can you give it to them, Frodo? Do not be so quick to deal out death in judgment. Even the wisest cannot see all ends.

OK--another clue-two of the hobbits witness the scene.

Is it an orc?

It's Grishnakh, arguing with Ugluk

Here's one with a double answer:

"But this one is taller than some and fairer than most, and he has a cleft in his chin: perky chap with a bright eye."

Yes, serinde--it's our favorite uruk-hai, whose head will shortly be on a
Rohirric spear.

Serinde, I just read this in the chapter I finished last night--yes, another summer reread of LOTR! This is Butterbur quoting Gandalf about Frodo.

This is Thranduil, speaking to his guards about Thorin, who will not divulge why he is trespassing in Mirkwood.

Right, of course! I thought putting a Hobbit vibe out there might spur the moviemakers to action. 8) Whenever it comes, it will be fun to see what Thranduil looks like!

By the time they get it all sorted out, Orlando Bloom will be old enough to play Thranduil! :shock:

Ok--new quote: "It is difficult to deceive him, and dangerous to try."
Bonus if you know who "him" is.
