Check out these Bilbo Baggins quotes for the lovers of Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit!

Bilbo Baggins is a hobbit, a central character in the legendary science fiction fantasy novels The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit.

Both of these novels were written by J. R. R. Tolkien.

In 2001 these legendary novels were adapted for film, and each became a movie trilogy directed by Peter Jackson.

While Bilbo is a supporting character in The Lord of the Rings, he is one of the main characters throughout The Hobbit.

Bilbo Baggins is an integral character in the Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings.

In his adventures in The Hobbit, he finds a magic ring that ends up being the most powerful ring of all, and the entire Lord of the Rings novel centers around that ring!

This ring is so powerful that no one can resist its power, and eventually turn to evil.

Luckily, Bilbo keeps it tucked away from the good and the evil beings that are out to find it for themselves.

Bilbo starts out as a mild-mannered homebody who is forced to go on an adventure or stay in his comfort zone in his home.

In the Hobbit, Bilbo joins a group of dwarves and a wizard that are seeking to reclaim the home of the dwarves.

Bilbo was initially recruited to this group to steal back the dwarves’ jewel from a dragon due to Hobbits being known for being stealthy.

Throughout the journey, he becomes much more than the “burglar” of the group.

On the adventure, Bilbo becomes more courageous and becomes an essential and resourceful member of the group.
