5) Priest-king – all Númenórean Kings were lineal Priest-kings (Letter 156, p. 206)

6) Tristan

7) “He drew Andúril and held it up glittering in the sun” and said “You shall not be sheathed again until the last battle be fought”. I just love this piece to bits, though it's very unlike most things Aragorn says, and totally in the heroic mode, so therefore impossible to acomplish. LOL

8) 14

9) All of them

10) Paul H. Kocher

11) Angbor

12) Faramir

13) 1 – John Hurt – The only right thing, and the only thing I loved in/about Bakshi’s Aragorn; 2) Robert Stephens

14) Still as the ranger hobbit Trotter, a.k.a. Peregrin Boffin, he was “in the kitchens, for his help was as much esteemed by the cooks as by the poets” - A Poet and an Cook! What else can you ask from a Mortal. Noooooooooooooooooothing. *grin*

15) Book 3, chap. 2 – “The Riders Of Rohan” (p. 433 in the one volume edition)

16) ‘Kingly Valour’ - “and his father gave him the name Aragorn, a name used in the House of the Chieftains. But Ivorwen at his naming stood by, and said ‘Kingly Valour’ (for so that name is interpreted): ‘that he shall have, but I see on his breast a green stone, and from that his ture name shall come and his chief renown: for he shall be a healer and a renewer’ (HOME – ch. XII The Peoples Of Middle-earth, Foreword, p. XII)

17) The gift of healing (As Ioreth says – “The hands of the king are the hands of a healer”; As Isildur’s Heir, the right to summon the Army of The Dead, and call upon them to fulfill their oath and to release them; the gift of foresight

18) The Renewer – The renewal of the Kingship of the Dúnedain to Gondor and Arnor.

19) The first Elendilmir, the white star of Elvish crystal upon a fillet of mithril descended from Silmarien to Elendil, taken by him as the token of royalty of The North Kingdom, and which had been lost when Isildur drowned in the Anduin was found by Elessar and Gimli, in Orthanc (where Elessar proposed to set up again the ‘palantir’ recovered from Saruman) during its restoration, behind a hidden door in a steel closet. The second Elendilmir, made by the Elven-smiths of Imladris for Valandil Isildur’s son, was a heirloom of his heirs and borne by the kings and chieftains of Arnor who came after Valandil including Aragorn. (It is the one Aragorn wears on the Pelennor fields, and on his coronation). The original one, according to UT, Elessar wore for the first time “…when he returned to the North and took up again the full kingship of Arnor [then] Arwen bound it upon his brow, and men were silent in amaze to see its splendor. But Elessar did not again imperil it, and wore it only on high days in the North Kingdom. Otherwise, when in kingly rainment he bore the Elendilmir which had descended to him. ‘And this also is a thing of reverence’, he said, ‘and above my worth; forty heads have worn it before.’” – I just love this!!!!!!!!! Am I obsessive or what?!!!!

20) Gimli

21) Out of the Great Sea To Middle-earth I am come. In this place will I abide and my heirs unto the ending of the world.

22) Snowmane

23) Branding

24) Atanatar II Ilcarin (The Glorious)

25) ‘What do you fear that I should say: that I had a rascal of a rebel dwarf here that I would gladly exchange for a serviceable orc?’ I love this. Who says Aragorn can’t be cranky and loose his temper, heh! LOL
