The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring quotes

Gandalf: Confound it all, Samwise Gamgee, have you been eavesdropping?

Sam Gamgee: I ain't been dropping no eaves, sir, honest! I was just cutting the grass under the window there, if you follow me.

Gandalf: A little late for trimming the verge, don't you think?

Sam Gamgee: I heard raised voices.

Gandalf: What did you hear? Speak!

Sam Gamgee: Oh, nothing important. That is, I heard a good deal about a Ring, and a Dark Lord, and something about the end of the world, but please Mr. Gandalf, sir, don't hurt me. Don't turn me into anything... un-natural.

Sam: Mr. Frodo's not going anywhere without me.

Elrond: No, indeed. It is hardly possible to separate you even when he is summoned to a secret Council and you are not.

The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King quotes

Frodo: There will be none left for the return journey.

Sam: I don't think there will be a return journey, Mr. Frodo.

Sam: Then let us be rid of it...once and for all! Come on, Mr. Frodo, I can't carry it for you, but I can carry you!

Sam: What are you up to? Sneaking off, are we?

Gollum: Sneaking? Sneaking? Fat hobbit is always so polite. Smeagol shows them secret ways that nobody else could find, and they say sneak. Sneak? Very nice friend. Oh, yes, my precious. Very nice, very nice.

Sam: All right all right! You just startled me is all. What were you doing?

Gollum: Sneaking.

The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers quotes

Frodo: I am Frodo Baggins, and this is Samwise Gamgee.

Faramir: Your bodyguard?

Sam: His gardener.

Sam: It's like in the great stories Mr. Frodo, the ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were, and sometimes you didn't want to know the end because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end it's only a passing thing this shadow, even darkness must pass. A new day will come, and when the sun shines it'll shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you, that meant something even if you were too small to understand why. But I think Mr. Frodo, I do understand, I know now folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn't. They kept going because they were holding on to something.

Frodo: What are we holding onto, Sam?

Sam: That there's some good in the world, Mr. Frodo, and it's worth fighting for.
