Who said the above quote and what were they referring to?
Tolkien, when LOTR was compared with Wagner's Ring Opera.
Quote:
"Out of the Great Sea to Middle-earth I am come. In this place will I abide, and my heirs, unto the ending of the world!"
"Out of the Great Sea to Middle-earth I am come. In this place will I abide, and my heirs, unto the ending of the world!"
Aragorn.

I thought Aragorn sings in Elvish saying that quote during his coronation as King?
ooh, Gil, you deleted your post, mate - Tommie is right I believe!!

Yup.... When I reread it I noticed with a shock she was right and I'm wrong Don't tell anybody, ok?

Tommie, yours was Groucho Marx.
Quote:
He would, wouldn't he?

Yup! The Great Groucho Marx!
I'm guessing it might have something to do with Douglas Adams, but it's very vague, Pere! Could you drop a hint? lol

Sorry Tommie, it's not Douglas Adams. If you want a hint, it comes from a court case in the 1960's.
guys that is not fair!!!, I have not a single clue about who is Groucho marx ( or is it mars? LOL) 
..., Is he part of Tolkiens Books???
And Pere...., that is cheating... there must be like a thousand quotes exactly the same in just one of tolkien’s books. remember that some of us have never been able to get the enlish version.
Greetings, it is good to see you all again.

Welcome back, Thingol! Groucho Marx is one of the Marx' Brothers, a rather well-known comic group. They made great films, like "A night at the opera" and "A day at the races". Groucho said some great things, worth quoting...
Pere: Mandy Rice-Davies?
