They changed their opinion of Mr. Baggins very much, and had begun to have a great respect for him (as Gandalf had said they would)

[TolkienLit @TolkienLit]

‘Attercop’ made them so angry that they lost their wits @BagginsBurglar #mirkwood

[TolkienLit @TolkienLit]

Only to meet an old slow wicked fat-bodied spider who had remained behind to guard the prisoners, and had been busy pinching them

[TolkienLit @TolkienLit]

He noticed a place of dense black shadow ahead of him, black even for that forest, like a patch of midnight that had never been cleared away

[TolkienLit @TolkienLit]

Go back?’ he thought. ‘No good at all!’ Go sideways? Impossible! Go forward? Only thing to do! @BagginsBurglar

[TolkienLit @TolkienLit]

They did not hate dwarves especially no more than they hated everybody and everything and particularly te orderly and prosperous @LTGothmog

You certainly usually find something, if you look, but it is not always quite the something you were after.

[TolkienLit @TolkienLit]

@pippintook__ @foolingtook We had one chance, and one chance only, and it had to be done before second breakfast

[TolkienLit @TolkienLit]

He fell flat on the floor, and kept calling out, struck by lightning, struck by lightning! @hobbitmovieblog @_TheHobbit_ @BilboThe_Hobbit

[TolkienLit @TolkienLit]

Members of the Took clan would go and have adventures...They discreetly disappeared, and the family hushed it up @pippintook__ @foolingtook

[TolkienLit @TolkienLit]

People considered them very respectable…they never had any adventures or did anything unexpected @FrodoBagginses @Tasty_Frodo @Merpers

[TolkienLit @TolkienLit]

Little by little one travels far

[TolkienLit @TolkienLit]

There's some good in this world, and it's worth fighting for.

[TolkienLit @TolkienLit]

Have a lovely day, lovely lady :) @EvangelineLilly
