Galadriel, an ancient Elven lady first encountered by the Fellowship in Lothlórien, is one of the wisest, most cool-headed characters in the Lord of the Rings mythos (despite the occasional outburst), and she’s no doubt responsible for many of the film franchise’s more poignant observations.

Several of her lines have stuck with people, although often for different reasons; here are 10 of the most memorable things she’s ever said.

10 “Do Not Be Afraid, Mithrandir. You Are Not Alone.”

Galadriel makes a brief appearance in The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, where she’s part of a Council (that also includes Saruman and Elrond) assembled to discuss new dangers in Middle-Earth. After their meeting, Galadriel confronts Gandalf regarding the Dwarves and their quest to retake Erebor, as well as the issue of a certain dangerous relic that seems to have been rediscovered.

She tells him to be careful but then offers him a comforting promise that she’ll be by his side even if worst comes to worst.

9 “You Have No Power Here, Servant Of Morgoth! You Are Nameless! Faceless! Formless! Go Back To The Void From Whence You Came!”

In the final installment of the Hobbit trilogy, The Hobbit: The Battle Of The Five Armies, Gandalf has been imprisoned in Dol Guldur by the Nine Ringwraiths, who are serving an unnamed Necromancer – revealed to be Sauron.

Galadriel, Elrond, and Saruman come to his aid, but they seem almost overtaken by the great power of their foes before Galadriel gets a truly epic moment in which she lashes out full-force at the Necromancer, banishing his spirit to Mordor.

8 “The World Is Changed.”

The first line of the Lord of the Rings trilogy, spoken as part of Galadriel’s opening monologue, “The world is changed” acknowledges the strange events that have happened between the First and Third Ages of Middle-Earth.

It’s a great opening line to one of the greatest film franchises ever made, and it perfectly sets the scene for an exciting adventure.

7 “But The Hearts Of Men Are Easily Corrupted.”

Galadriel uses this line during her opening monologue in The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring to describe why the Ring was never destroyed – even when it fell into the hands of Isildur, who seemed like the perfect person to rid Middle-Earth of its evil influence.

The Ring gives whoever uses it an extremely desirable and completely unique power, and even the most strong-willed can feel burning temptation when they come into contact with it.

6 “The Quest Stands Upon The Edge Of A Knife.”

When the Fellowship arrives in Lothlórien minus one wizard, Galadriel fully realizes the sheer enormity of their predicament, warning them to take utmost care in their decisions as if they “stray but at little … it will fall, to the ruin of all.”

While she’s able to give words of encouragement, Galadriel also has a very down-to-earth disposition and will not hesitate to give them the truth if she feels it’s what’s necessary for their quest to succeed.

5 “In Place Of A Dark Lord You Would Have A Queen!”

Case in point: even Galadriel was tempted by the Ring’s enormous power. When Frodo “offers it to [her] freely”, she laughs at the thought of just taking it from him before erupting into a creepy speech about how, with the Ring, she would become a Queen “stronger the foundations of the Earth” whom “all shall love … and despair.”

Seconds later, however, she returns to normal, calmly remarking that she “passed the test.”

4 “Even The Smallest Person Can Change The Course Of The Future.”

Galadriel recognizes that it is Frodo’s duty to bear the Ring, and thus offers him a word of encouragement when he remarks that he knows “what [he] must do” but he’s “afraid to do it.”

It’s a positive message that anyone can take to heart and a reminder of Frodo’s bravery in becoming the Ring-Bearer.

3 “May It Be A Light For You In Dark Places, When All Other Lights Go Out.”

As the Fellowship is departing from Lothlórien, Galadriel offers Frodo a special gift; a crystal vial containing the light of Earendil, which Galadriel describes as “our most beloved star.” It’s another way of reminding him that he has allies in the fight against Mordor.

As would be expected, the vial becomes quite important later; without it, it’s doubtful Frodo would have ever completed his quest.

2 “Do We Leave Middle-Earth To Its Fate? Do We Let Them Stand Alone?”

In The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, the Elves have basically resigned themselves to the inevitable fall of mankind at the hands of Sauron, departing for the Gray Havens to escape the troubles of Middle-Earth. After Galadriel makes a series of depressing remarks to Elrond, even remarking that “the world will fall”, she has a sudden change of heart, insisting the Elves must do whatever they can and not just “leave Middle-Earth to its fate.”

This encourages the Elves of Lothlórien to fight alongside the Rohirrim at the Battle of Helm’s Deep.

1 “The Power Of The Three Rings Has Ended. The Time Has Come … For The Dominion Of Men.”

At the end of The Lord Of The Rings: The Return of the King, Sauron’s hold over Middle-Earth has finally disappeared and many of the key players in ending his reign are sailing away to rest in the Gray Havens.

Galadriel delivers this quote as her final statement to those who remain, essentially telling them to rebuild Middle-Earth, and officially ushering in the end of the Third Age.
