It's like in the great stories. The ones that really matter. 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 will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you that meant something. Even if you were too small to understand why. Folk in those stories had a lot of chances of turning back, only they didn't. They kept going because they were holding on to something. That there's some good in this world. And it's worth fighting for.

    Faramir: [to Frodo] Where will you go to reach there, Frodo?

    Frodo: Gollum says there is a tunnel above Minas Morgul. It climbs up into the mountains.

    Faramir: Cirith Ungol?

    [Faramir notices Gollum is acting suspiciously. He slams him to the wall. Gollum inhales and gags in surprised horror and pain over being choked]

    Faramir: [fiercely] Is that its name?

    Gollum: [shaking his head vigorously; yowling like a cat] No, no!

    [Faramir tightens his grip on Gollum's neck. Gollum winces in pain and gasps]

    Gollum: [in a pitiful squawk of a voice] Y-YES!
