72 Years Later, Gandalf's Best Quote Is Still Unbeaten In Lord of the Rings History

The Lord of the Rings is epic in every sense of the word. The entire saga weighs in at well over a thousand pages, factoring in The Hobbit and The Silmarillion and then some, telling a story with a vast scope that encompasses eons. And author J.R.R. Tolkien's books are epic on a page-by-page, sentence-by-sentence level too, featuring countless spectacular sentences and memorable quotes, but one line uttered by Gandalf stands out above the rest.
