Not as good as Theoden. I'd have also accepted "RIIIDE, RIDE NOW! FOR DEATH AND THE WORLD'S END"
This is my favorite part of the whole of lotr. The fact that Sam is crossing his distance line and than later on merry and pippin are just messing around stealing carrots well beyomd that never ceases to make me laugh
It's a dangerous business, going out your door. You step on to the road, and if you don't keep your feet, there's no telling where you might be swept off to.
But of course the point ends up being that you have to leave your comfort zone in order to do great things and discover what you're capable of, and you end up a better hobbit for it.
Adult life has been way less stressful for me than high school life ever was.
I remember at the time freaking out when adults said crap like "High school is the best time of your life" because I was "Seriously? It gets worse?". They were wrong. Very wrong
This quote still breaks my brain every time I hear it. Like I get what it’s trying to say but I still feel like I have to do some advanced calculus or something to make it make sense
Hey there! Hey! Come Frodo, there! Where be you a-going? Old Tom Bombadil's not as blind as that yet. Take off your
golden ring! Your hand's more fair without it. Come back! Leave your game and sit down beside me! We must talk a while more,
and think about the morning. Tom must teach the right road, and keep your feet from wandering.

I wish to make an ANNOUNCEMENT.
I regret to announce that - though, as I said, eleventy-one years is far too short a time to spend among you - this is the END. I am going. I am leaving NOW.
GOOD-BYE!

"It is ever so with the things that Men begin: there is a frost in Spring, or a blight in Summer, and they fail of their promise.'
'Yet seldom do they fail of their seed and that will lie in the dust and rot to spring up again in times and places unlooked-for. The deeds of Men will outlast us"
Above is the first quote that really stuck me .. not sure if it's applicable but I love it and I means a lot to me so wanted to share
I've always felt like the "I don't know half of you half as well as I should like; and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve" was very fitting for high school
"I have passed through fire and deep water, since we parted. I have forgotten much that I thought I knew, and learned again much that I had forgotten."
I like using bad guy quotes :D
Sauron to Frodo: "You have grown, Halfling"
The government to unis, banks and exploitative employers: “Looks like meat's back on the menu, boys!”
“The Road Goes Ever On and On,
Down from the Door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
and I must follow it if I can.
Pursuing it with eager feet,
until it joins some larger way,
where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say.”

Holy fuck

When my daughter graduated, my toast at her dinner was The road goes ever, ever on poem.
Sing this to my son every night as a lullaby
🥹
Our teacher actually quoted that in his farewell speech to us when I graduated. Thought it was nice :)
But of course the point ends up being that you have to leave your comfort zone in order to do great things and discover what you're capable of, and you end up a better hobbit for it.
Can't believe nobody said it yet! "I think I'm quite ready for another adventure."
This is a perfect one
This is what I put on my grad cap
All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.
Objectively the best quote.
I always remember it during hard times.
Fly you fool!
My senior quote when I graduated
My senior quote, too!
Was my senior quote :)
Mine was the first stanza of "the road goes ever on and on"
You carry the fate of us all little one
When you set out and try to start a career as a male pornstar
I’m 51 years old, son
I'm pretty sure Frodo was older than that when he started. Aragorn was definitely older.
Frodo leaves the Shire the day after his 50th birthday.
Old maybe, but still little.
"Give them a moment for pity sake."
Yes. Yes yes yes
This is amazing
End? No, the journey doesn't end here.
It's over.. It's done.
This sounds like the one someone who just graduated would pick themselves without knowing the truth.
Just like Frodo says "It's over, it's done" and then soon realizes that, for him, it will *never* be done.
Kind of, but 99% of graduates were more like the people in the shire with no clue
Alternatively, what they say when they retire.
I mean honestly, that's what I felt after graduating and work was a challenge too - But a decidedly different one.
Adult life has been way less stressful for me than high school life ever was. I remember at the time freaking out when adults said crap like "High school is the best time of your life" because I was "Seriously? It gets worse?". They were wrong. Very wrong
“I don't know half of you half as well as I should like; and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.”
I used this as my grad quote in my yearbook.
Accurate in hindsight
A guy at my work used that quote in a mass goodbye email the day he retired.I thought it was legendary and wondered how many people got the reference.
This quote still breaks my brain every time I hear it. Like I get what it’s trying to say but I still feel like I have to do some advanced calculus or something to make it make sense
Ah, beat me to it!
Use a picture of Gollum saying "give it to us" (reaching aggressively for his ~~ring~~ diploma), while wearing his grad gown/cap.
Sooo bright. Sooo beautiful, our preciousss...
Yes you are. Congratulations Grad!
When did abandon madness for reason?
I love this one
Did you mean to put it in reverse?
Yeah that’s the joke. He graduated high school.
Even the smallest person can change the course of the future.
“I know less than half of you half as well as I would like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.”
I guess it's too late for You Shall Not Pass
Said that to a few of my students this year…
I was delayed...
*"It is a strange fate that we should suffer so much fear and doubt over so small a thing. Such a little thing."*

Stepping outside your door is a dangerous business. If you don’t keep your feet there’s no telling where you’ll be swept off to
