Hobbits really are amazing creatures. You can learn all there is to know about their ways in a month, and yet after a hundred years they can still surprise you.
Gandalf in The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the RingIn a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a hobbit-hole, and that means comfort.

Aragorn in The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the KingFor the time would soon come when Hobbits would shape the fortunes of all.
Galadriel in The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the RingAnd yet, to have come so far, still bearing the Ring, the Hobbit has shown extraordinary resilience to its evil.
Elrond in The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the RingHobbits are a lot like Scots. It's all about nature and enjoying their land, which is a very Scottish thing.
