About this quote

A blunt rebuke delivered in The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003). Gandalf the White directs the line at Peregrin Took during an exchange in Minas Tirith, cutting through a nervous interruption. The sentence is memorable because of its plain authority and the sharp contrast between a calm, powerful figure and a small, talkative companion.
