The road goes ever on and on down from the door, where it began. Now far ahead the road has gone, and I must follow if I can. Pursuing it with eager feet, Until it joins some larger way. Where many paths and errands meet. And whither then? I cannot say.
I wonder if people will ever say, ‘Let’s hear about Frodo and the Ring.’ And they’ll say ‘Yes, that’s one of my favorite stories. Frodo was really courageous, wasn’t he, Dad?’ ‘Yes, my boy, the most famousest of hobbits. And that’s saying a lot.‘
I aspire to the level of pettiness that bilbo baggins reaches with his notes on the gifts left to his relatives
Some highlights:
- “For ADELARD TOOK, for his VERY OWN,from Bilbo; on an umbrella. Adelard had carried off many unlabeled ones.”
- “For MILO BURROWS, hoping it will be useful, from B.B.; on a gold pen and ink bottle. Milo never answered letters.”
- “For the collection of HUGO BRACEGIRDLE, from a contributor; on an (empty) bookcase. Hugo was a great borrower of books, and worse than usual at returning them.”
And last but certainly not least:
“For LOBELIA SACKVILLE-BAGGINS, as a PRESENT; on a case of silver spoons. Bilbo believed that she had acquired a good many of his spoons, while he was away on his former journey. Lobelia knew that quite well. When she arrived later in the day, she took the point at once, but she also took the spoons.”
