“Gandalf... Do you know what happened to us? To Tink and me?” “…I do.” “And if you were to tell me the whole truth… all of it, right now… would it harm us?” “It would. Both of you.” -- Eleanor & Gandalf (Compos Mentis, Chapter 25)

"Looks like neither of us can dance." "I’ll have you know I am an exceptionally fine dancer." "When you’re not three-sheets-to-the-wind from out-drinking a room full of roaring men." "And one Dwarf." -- E & L (Compos Mentis, Chapter 24)
