As 60 years ago on this day The Return of the King was published for the first time, I thought that to mark the anniversary, we could share 60-words-long quotes from the Lord of the Rings (in any language) with the tag #LOTR60words anyywhere on social media on the 20th of October, 2015, so today.
I know it is a bit hard to cut out exactly 60 words and still keep the cool meaning, so I suppose we can cheat a bit, but let's give it a try: share the idea, if you like it
For the the anniversary, Dimitra Fimi gave a brief interview on BBC Radio Wales this morning to mark the occasion. You can listen via this link (from 01:55:01):

It seemed that Dernhelm laughed, and the clear voice was like the ring of steel. 'But no living man am I! You look upon a woman. Éowyn I am, Éomund's daughter. You stand between me and my lord and kin. Begone, if you be not deathless! For living or dark undead, I will smite you, if you touch him.'
