Quotes 

  • Thorin Oakenshield : [last words] 

    Thorin Oakenshield : [to Bilbo]  Farewell, Master Burglar. Go back to your books... and your armchair... plant your trees, watch them grow. If more people... valued home above gold... this world would be a merrier... place...

    Bilbo Baggins : No! No, no, no! No! Thorin! Thorin... don't you dare!

    [cradles Thorin, who has already died] 

    Bilbo Baggins : Thorin... hold on. Hold on. Look. The Eagles. The Eagles. The Eagles are here. Thorin!

    [realizing Thorin's dead] 

    Bilbo Baggins : The Ea -

    [breaks down and begins to weep] 

  • Thorin Oakenshield : I am so sorry... that I have lead you to such peril...

    [coughs] 

    Bilbo Baggins : No! I am glad to have shared in your perils, Thorin. Each and every one of them. It is far more than any Baggins deserves!

  • Dwalin : You sit here, in these vast halls, with a crown upon your head, and yet you are lesser now than you have ever been.

    Thorin Oakenshield : Do not speak to me as if I were some lowly dwarf...

    [weeping] 

    Thorin Oakenshield : as if I were still Thorin Oakenshield.

    [angrily draws his sword] 

    Thorin Oakenshield : I AM YOUR KING!

    Dwalin : You were always my king. You used to know that once. But you cannot see what you have become.

    Thorin Oakenshield : Get out before I kill you.

  • Bilbo Baggins : You are changed, Thorin! The Dwarf I met in Bag End would never have gone back on his word! Would never have doubted the loyalty of his kin!

    Thorin Oakenshield : Do not speak to me of loyalty. Throw him from the rampart!

  • [From trailer] 

    Bard : Will you have peace, or war?

    Thorin Oakenshield : I will have war!

  • Thorin Oakenshield : [From trailer]  Everything I did, I did for them.

  • [Bilbo, sitting alone, reaches into his pocket] 

    Thorin Oakenshield : What is that in your hand?

    Bilbo Baggins : [startled]  It-it's nothing.

    Thorin Oakenshield : Show me!

    [Bilbo opens his hand, revealing an acorn] 

    Bilbo Baggins : I picked it up in Beorn's garden.

    Thorin Oakenshield : You've carried it all this way?

    Bilbo Baggins : I'm going to plant it in my garden, in Bag End.

    Thorin Oakenshield : It's a poor prize to take back to the Shire.

    Bilbo Baggins : One day it'll grow. And every time I look at it, I'll remember. Remember everything that happened: the good, the bad... and how lucky I am that I made it home.

  • Thorin Oakenshield : [staring at the space on the throne where the Arkenstone would be]  It is here in these halls. I know it.

    Dwalin : We have searched and searched.

    Thorin Oakenshield : Not well enough.

    Dwalin : Thorin, we *all* would see the Stone returned.

    Thorin Oakenshield : [seething]  And yet, it is still not *found*!

    Balin : Do you doubt the loyalty of... anyone here?

    [Thorin turns to look at Dwalin and Balin; Bilbo stands beside him] 

    Balin : The Arkenstone... is the birthright of our people.

    Thorin Oakenshield : It is the King's... Jewel. Am I not the *king*?

    [Dwalin and Balin stare sadly without answering; Bilbo watches as Thorin calms down] 

    Thorin Oakenshield : [threateningly]  Know this: If *anyone* should find it and withhold it from me... I will be avenged.

    [Thorin leaves; Bilbo stares off in thought] 

  • Kili : I will not hide behind a wall of stone while others fight OUR BATTLES FOR US! It is not in my blood, Thorin.

    Thorin Oakenshield : No, it is not. We are sons of Durin. And Durin's Folk do not flee from a fight.

    [Thorin and Kili butt heads] 

    Thorin Oakenshield : [to the rest of his company]  I have no right to ask this of any of you. Will you follow me, one last time?

  • Thorin Oakenshield : [calling down the hall, from the armory to Bilbo]  Master Baggins, come here.

    [Bilbo tentatively wanders over] 

    Thorin Oakenshield : You're going to need this.

    [Thorin holds up the mithril shirt - the same one Bilbo gave Frodo in Fellowship of the Ring] 

    Thorin Oakenshield : Put it on.

    [Bilbo takes it and slips it on over his shirt] 

    Thorin Oakenshield : This vest is made of silver steel. Mithril, it was called by my forebears. No blade can pierce it.

    Bilbo Baggins : [laughing slightly at how he looks]  I look absurd! I'm not a warrior, I'm a Hobbit.

    Thorin Oakenshield : It is a gift. A token of our friendship.

    [Bilbo offers a small smile. Thorin glances at the Dwarves in the armory, lowering his voice] 

    Thorin Oakenshield : True friends are hard to come by.

    [Shoves BIlbo, none too kindly, further down the tunnel, out of earshot] 

    Thorin Oakenshield : I have been blind... but now I begin to see. I am betrayed!

    Bilbo Baggins : [nervously]  Betrayed?

    Thorin Oakenshield : The Arkenstone.

    [leans closer to Bilbo, lowering his voice even more] 

    Thorin Oakenshield : One of them has taken it.

    [Both Bilbo and Thorin glance back towards the armory] 

    Thorin Oakenshield : One of them is false.

    Bilbo Baggins : [carefully]  Thorin... the quest is fulfilled. You've won the mountain. Is that not enough?

    Thorin Oakenshield : Betrayed by my own kin...

    Bilbo Baggins : N-no, uh. You made a promise to the people of Laketown. I-is this treasure truly worth more than your honor? Our honor, Thorin, I was also there. I gave my word.

    Thorin Oakenshield : [Thorin smiles]  For that, I am grateful. It was nobly done.

    [smile fades] 

    Thorin Oakenshield : But the treasure in this mountain does not belong to the people of Laketown.

    [sounding more and more like Smaug] 

    Thorin Oakenshield : This gold is ours. And ours alone. On my life, I will not part with a single coin. Not one piece of it.

    Bilbo Baggins : [Bilbo stares across at him in despair and maybe a little fear as the Dwarves march by, fully armed] 

  • Thorin Oakenshield : [sees the homeless people of Lake-town]  Those who have lived through dragon fire should rejoice. They have much to be grateful for.

  • [Bard walks up to a destroyed entrance of Erebor] 

    Thorin Oakenshield : [slides into view]  I am listening.

    Bard : On behalf of the people of Laketown, I ask that you honor your pledge. A share of the treasure so that they might rebuild their lives.

    Thorin Oakenshield : I will not trade with any man while an armed host lies before my door.

    Bard : That armed host will attack this mountain if we do not come to terms.

    Thorin Oakenshield : Your threats do not sway me.

    Bard : [after a short pause]  What of your conscience? Does it not tell you our cause is just? My people offered you help. And in return you brought upon them only ruin and death.

    Thorin Oakenshield : When did the men of Laketown come to our aid but for the promise of rich reward?

    Bard : A bargain was struck!

    Thorin Oakenshield : A BARGAIN? What choice did we have but to barter our birthrights for blankets and food? To ransom our future in exchange for our freedom? You call that a fair trade? Tell me, Bard the dragon slayer, why should I honor such terms?

    Bard : Because you gave us your word. Does that mean nothing?

    [Thorin slides out of view, and sees the rest of the Company lined up behind him, looking expectant] 

    Thorin Oakenshield : Begone, 'ere our arrows fly!

    [Bard leaves in disgust] 

  • Thorin Oakenshield : I'm glad you're here. I wish to part with you in friendship.

    Bilbo Baggins : No. You're not going anywhere, Thorin. You're going to live.

    Thorin Oakenshield : I would take back my words and my deeds at the Gate. You did what only a true friend would do. Forgive me. I was too blind to see it.

  • Thorin Oakenshield : [learning Bard has the Arkenstone]  They are taking us for fools. It is a ruse. A filthy lie. The Arkenstone is in this mountain! It is a trick!

    Bilbo Baggins : It... it's no trick. The stone is real. I gave it to them.

    Thorin Oakenshield : You?

    Bilbo Baggins : I took it as my fourteenth share.

    Thorin Oakenshield : You would steal from me?

    Bilbo Baggins : Steal from you? No. No, I may be a burglar, but I like to think I'm an honest one.

  • Bard : Why does the King under the Mountain fence himself in like a robber in his hold?

    Thorin Oakenshield : Perhaps it is because I am expecting to be robbed.

    Bard : My lord, we have not come to rob you; but, to seek fair settlement.

  • Bilbo Baggins : What are you doing? You... cannot go to war.

    Thorin Oakenshield : This does not concern you.

    Bilbo Baggins : Excuse me, but just in case you haven't noticed, there is an army of elves out there! Not to mention several hundred angry fishermen. We are, in fact, outnumbered.

    Thorin Oakenshield : Not for much longer.

    Bilbo Baggins : What does that mean?

    Thorin Oakenshield : It means, Master Baggins... you should never underestimate dwarves. We have reclaimed Erebor. Now, we defend it.

  • Thorin Oakenshield : Gold. Gold beyond measure. Beyond sorrow and grief. Behold, the great treasure hoard of Thrór. Welcome my sister-sons - to the Kingdom - of Erebor.

  • Thorin Oakenshield : Many die in war. Life is cheap. But a treasure such as this cannot be counted in lives lost. It is worth all the blood we can spend.

  • Thorin Oakenshield : Never again will I have dealings with Wizards! - Or Shire rats!
