I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought

I interrupt this game to point out just how many words we have that end (and therefore begin as well) with the letter E.

(This interruption sponsored by the letter E and the number 18)
