FromThe Two Towers, Chapter 2, The Riders of Rohan
'All lthat you say is strange, Aragorn,'he said.'Yet you speak the truth, that is plain: the Men of the Mark do not lie, and therefore they are not easily deceived. But you have not told all. Will you now speak more fully of your errand, so that I may judge what to do?'

I saw this quote the first day that it was posted and I couldn't think of anything interesting to say about it...and really I still can't...

Without you even saying so I know that this was Éomer speaking because that is how he was (and really all of the Rohirrim)...to the point, no nonsense, truthful, fiercely loyal, respectful, etcetera.

Sorry PbHf, I've got nothing else

I think it's very significant that he says that the Men of the Mark are not easily deceived - thinking of future chapters and all that.

But it's truly Éomer, I agree, Nienna.
