J.R.R. Tolkien
“Are we riding far tonight, Gandalf?鈥� asked Merry after a while. 鈥淚 don鈥檛 know how you feel with small rag-tag dangling behind you; but the rag-tag is tired and will be glad to stop dangling and lie down.鈥�
鈥淪o you heard that?鈥� said Gandalf. 鈥淒on鈥檛 let it rankle! Be thankful no longer words were aimed at you. He had his eyes on you. If it is any comfort to your pride, I should say that, at the moment, you and Pippin are more in his thoughts than the rest of us. Who you are; how you came here, and why; what you know; whether you were captured, and if so, how you escaped when all the orcs perished鈥攊t is with those little riddles that the great mind of Saruman is troubled. A sneer from him, Meriadoc, is a compliment, if you feel honoured by his concern.鈥�
鈥淭hank you!鈥� said Merry. 鈥淏ut it is a greater honour to dangle at your tail, Gandalf. For one thing, in that position one has a chance of putting a question a second time. Are we riding far tonight?鈥�
Gandalf laughed. 鈥淎 most unquenchable hobbit! All wizards should have a hobbit or two in their care鈥攖o teach them the meaning of the world, and to correct them.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Two Towers

“There was a lot more to that song,' said Sam, 'all about Mordor. I didn鈥檛 learn that part, it gave me the shivers. I never thought I should be going that was myself!'
'Going to Mordor!鈥� Cried Pippin. 'I hope it won鈥檛 come to that!'
'Do not speak that name so loudly!' said Strider”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

J.R.R. Tolkien
“Slowly the lights of the torches in front of Merry flicked and went out, and he was walking in a darkness; and he thought: 鈥楾his is a tunnel leading to a tomb; there we shall stay forever.鈥� But suddenly into his dream there fell a living voice.
鈥榃ell, Merry! Thank goodness I have found you!鈥�
He looked up and the mist before his eyes cleared a little. There was Pippin! They were face to face in a narrow lane, but for themselves it was empty. He rubbed his eyes.
鈥榃here is the king?鈥� He said. 鈥楢nd Eowyn?鈥� Then he stumbled and sat down on a doorstep and began to weep again.
鈥楾hey must have gone up into the Citadel,鈥� said Pippin. 鈥業 think you must have fallen asleep on your feet and taken the wrong turning. When we found out you were not with them, Gandalf sent me to look for you. Poor old Merry! How glad I am to see you again! But you are worn out, and I won鈥檛 bother you with any talk. But tell me, are you hurt, or wounded?鈥�
鈥楴o,鈥� said Merry. 鈥榃ell, no, I don鈥檛 think so. But I can鈥檛 use my right arm, Pippin, not since I stabbed him. And my sword burned away like a piece of wood.鈥�
Pippin鈥檚 face was anxious. 鈥榃ell, you had better come with me as quick as you can,鈥� he said. 鈥業 wish I could carry you. You aren鈥檛 fit to walk any further. They shouldn鈥檛 have let you walk at all; but you must forgive them. So many dreadful things have happened in the City, Merry, that one poor hobbit coming in from battle is easily overlooked.鈥�
鈥業t鈥檚 not always a misfortune being overlooked,鈥� said Merry. 鈥業 was overlooked just now by鈥攏o, no, I can鈥檛 speak of it. Help me, Pippin! It鈥檚 all going dark again, and my arm is so cold.鈥�
鈥楲ean on me, Merry lad!鈥� said Pippin. 鈥楥ome now. Foot by foot. It鈥檚 not far.鈥�
鈥楢re you going to bury me?鈥� said Merry.
鈥楴o, indeed!鈥� said Pippin, trying to sound cheerful, though his heart was wrung with fear and pity. 鈥楴o, we are going to the Houses of Healing.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King

J.R.R. Tolkien
“I wish Merry was here," he heard himself saying, and quick thoughts raced through his mind, even as he watched the enemy come charging to the assault. "Well, well, now at any rate I understand poor Denethor a little better. We might die together, Merry and I, and since die we must, why not? Well, as he is not here, I hope he'll find an easier end. But now I must do my best.”
