About this quote

Near the film's close in The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003), Samwise Gamgee returns to the Shire and steps back into the life he left behind. He delivers a single, plain line at the doorway of Bag End that marks the end of his long ordeal. The line sticks because of its timing and simplicity — after so much action and loss, the quiet arrival lands hard and feels deeply human.
