甘道夫: 可惜? 毕尔博是因为可怜他，才住了手.许多当死之人还活着，而一些该活着的人却死了.这是你能给予的么,佛罗多? 不要过于急切的以生死判定一切。即使最具智慧的人也无法预见所有的结局.我的直觉告诉我，在整件事结束之前，咕噜姆还要扮演某个角色,或善或恶。毕尔博的怜悯决定了很多人的命运.
Gandalf: Pity? It was pity that stayed Bilbo's hand. Many that live deserve death, and some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them, Frodo? Do not be too eager to deal out death and judgment. Even the very wise cannot see all ends. My heart tells me that Gollum has some part to play yet, for good or ill, before this is over. The pity of Bilbo may rule the fate of many.
