Character: Gimli

Unrealizable human dreams.

Yes, ancient buildings are more solid, and so are all human affairs - frost interferes with them in spring, drought in summer, and the promise never comes true.

- We sit on the field of victory and taste its well-deserved fruits. The corned beef is especially good!

- Don't stop and spill!
- And don't regurgitate...
- What? Who will drink whom?
- The winner is the one who remains on his feet.

- Now the dwarves will go swimming with little hairy women.
- I feel something. Some tingling in my fingertips. I think it's bad for him.
- What did I say? He can't drink! [falls under the table]
- Game over.

Quote in English

- I was worn out by this endless pursuit. Dwarves value not endurance, but speed. We are the best on short throws!

Let's put them here! Still a dwarf in Moria is able to keep the axe!

Explanation of the quote:

The dwarven city Dwarrowdelf.
After what I saw in the dead city, Gimli eager to get even with the scene by the noise of the orcs.

Was the light still not awakened,
When, having shaken last dream.
Great Darin, the first dwarf
Easily stepped over okoem
High lullaby rocks
And in the moonlit darkness he appeared
Unnamed novelty
Newborn world earth.
He gave the land names
And again silence.

What then may happen to us, it was a great day and a great hour!

Naked swords, was pale, but I didn't recognize, as if they were sharp as before, because in addition to fear, the Dead did not need any weapons.

- I'm afraid now he'll strike faster than planned!
- Who is in a hurry, often on target.

- Maybe people here are wise pomaskina about these caves: probably one hard-working dwarven family with hammers in hand would be enough to disserve so much, that then no gnomes are not correct!
- You're wrong, ' replied Gimli. - The heart of a dwarf could not remain indifferent to such beauty. The children of durin would not have to get there stones. Even gold and diamonds we are not tempted to. Did you cut down for firewood would be the blossoming of spring grove?

Nothing will outshine my eyes to the beauty the elven lady, he said to Legolas who was sitting with him in the same boat. From now on I will be able to call beautiful only what emanates from it. - He put his hand to his breast and exclaimed: - Why I only went on this Trip? Tell Me, Legolas! What could I know about the main dangers that await me on the way? Elrond was right: we didn't anticipate that we will meet. I was afraid of darkness, afraid of torture, and this fear hasn't stopped me - and it turned out that the most dangerous of all light and joy. If I knew about, I never dare to leave Rivendell. Parting with her gave me such a wound, that where there is dark Lord, even if I right now fell into his hands!

Only treacherous says goodbye, seeing the darkness ahead, - said Gimli.
- Maybe, said Elrond. But if he swears not to stand in the darkness of one who has never seen a night!
- Word of the vow can strengthen the wavering, - agreed Gimli.
- Or break it ' said Elrond.

- Never thought I'd die fighting side by side with an elf.
- What about side by side with a friend?
- To this I agree.
