‘Do you remember when we first met?’

‘I thought I had wandered into a dream.’

J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring (via bl-ossomed)

Nope. Not Tolkien. This was written by Jackson, Boyens, and/or Walsh, for the movie. The relationship, and the back-story Aragorn is recounting in the scene: that’s Tolkien, sure. But the language is so much not his. It’s 100% movie-LOTR (which I love), not book-LOTR (which I also love, and loved for a long time before the movies existed). They’re different things.
