Right, here is another sage quote:
"Advise is a dangerous gift, even from the wise to the wise, and all courses may run ill."

Bruce, I have a feeling this is Gildor talking to the hobbits, am I on the right track?

Anyone who knows the answer would surely be admired for helping move this thread along.

I believe that Gil is correct and that is from Gildor Inglorion to Frodo in the woods above Woodhall.

You're up Gil.

Butterbur?

I think it was Aragorn at the parting of the Fellowship.

It definitely is from the end of RoTK Riv. I bet your right. At first my hunch was Butterbur after he was told by Gandalf and the Hobbits of the fate of the outside world. Remember he was hoping this new King could clean up the bad influences in Bree. I could look it up...to lazy right now though.

LOL...me too. We'll let Gil settle it for us.

Riv Res, as usual you are correct!

Philipa the sentiment could be Butterbur, but the language is a bit too archaic I think. If I see "older" English I assume "not Hobbit or associates"!

Over to you Riv Res...
