After all of the adventures that Bilbo Baggins had to take, he said he is pleased to be "only quite a little fellow in a wide world after all." I would have to say that I agree and disagree with him. He likes being in his little, quiet hobbit hole. I would be very content with living alone, in a quiet home. Although I enjoy the quiet, I also disagree with Mr. Baggins. I love new challenges and new adventures. I enjoy exploring and learning new things. Bilbo did not. He wanted to be left alone in his home. He seemed quite annoyed when Gandalf and the dwarves intruded into his hole. He did not want homeless dwarves and a wizard to barge into his peacefulness. He especially didn't want to go on a wild adventure to slay a dragon! Despite the fact that Bilbo liked to be left alone, I have to agree with him, but disagree also.
