The Lonely Mountain! Bilbo had come far and through many adventures to see it, and now he didn't like the look of it in the least.

This is a bitter adventure, if it must end so; and not a mountain of gold can amend it. Yet I am glad that I have shared in your perils -- that has been more than any baggins deserves.

We are plain quiet folk, and I have no use for adventures. Nasty, disturbing, and uncomfortable things.

Where iss it, where iss it: my Precious, my Precious? It's ours, it is, and we wants it.

The Bagginses had lived in the neighbourhood of The Hill for time out of mind, and people considered them very respectable, not only because most of them were rich, but also because they never had any adventures or did anything unexpected: you could tell what a Baggins would say on any question without the bother of asking him.

Adventures make one late for supper.

Adventures only make you late for dinner.

I am looking for someone to share in an adventure that I am arranging, and it's very difficult to find anyone.
