Quotes & Observations
Juxtaposition of Frodo and Bilbo:  "Bilbo went to find a treaure, there and back again; but I go to lose one, and not return, as far as I can see" (Tolkien 65).

"He did not come" (66).

"Our last meal at Bag End" (68). - Never just dinner

"There was only one Road; that it was like a great river: its springs were at every doorstep [...] 'It's a dangerous business, Frodo, going out of your door,' [...] 'You step into the Road, and if you don't keep your feet, there is no knowing where you might be swept off to" (72).

The Two Temptations

"Hobbits are so dull" (79).

"Others dwelt here before hobbits were; and others will dwell here again here again when hobbits are no more.  The Wide world is all about you: you can fence yourselves in, but you cannot for ever fence it out" (82).

"Courage is found in unlikely places" (83).
