Balin: It appears we have lost our burglar. Probably for the best. The odds were always against us. After all, what are we? Merchants, miners, tinkerers, toy-makers. Hardly the stuff of legend

Balin: Old warriors
Thorin Oakenshield: I would take each and every one of these Dwarves over an army from the Iron Hills. For when I called upon them, they answered. Loyalty. Honor. A willing heart... I can ask no more than that

«Pero vivir, y recordar, y entender, y querer, y pensar, y saber, y juzgar, ¿quién podrá dudarlo? Pues incluso si duda, vive; si duda, donde duda recuerda; si duda, entiende que él duda; si duda, quiere tener certeza; si duda, piensa; si duda, sabe que él no sabe; si duda, juzga que no conviene que él asienta a algo temerariamente. Así pues, quien duda de cualquier cosa, no debe dudar de todo aquello sin lo que no podría dudar de cosa alguna»
(San Agustín de Hipona, De Trinitate X, 10, 14)
