The Hobbit

In ,The Hobbit, Bilbo says he is pleased to be, "Only quite a little fellow in a wide world after all." Although being small has it's disadvantages, it also has it's advantages. I would be perfectly fine with being a very small person in a very large world. Being small means you get to be the center of attention most the time. It also means you don't have to bend down as far or carry around as much weight. Being small means you have many disadvantages also. It means you can't reach as many things, or usually lift as much weight as most others. Being really small would mean you can't participate in a lot of activities, such as carnival rides as well. I still wouldn't mind being small, because if that's the way God made me, or made anyone, they and I should be proud of it, which I would be. There are many things I stated good and bad about being a little guy in a big world. But no matter how many cons there are about it, I still would be happy with being, "Only quite a little fellow in a wide world." Therefore I agree with Bilbo's feelings about being the way he is.

A Little Fellow in a Wide World After All

Bilbo says that he is pleased to be "only quite a little fellow in a wide world after all," What this means is that he is fine with being small in a big world, because you don't have to be big and strong to be brave and powerful. This is a great life philosophy for him because, he lives in a world where there are many dangers. Being little helps him hide and sneak away. It also doesn't help him in many ways. He's not strong enough to fight off a group of ogres, but he's smart enough to persuade them to leave him alone.
I wouldn't want to be "only quite a little fellow in a wide world after all," because I need to be big to survive in the world that I live in. Even though there are no goblins, ogres, or dragons in the world we live in, doesn't mean that you don't need protection. You also don't want to be too big, because then you might not live a healthy and normal life. So, in other words, I disagree and agree with Bilbo when he says that he is "pleased to be only quite a little fellow in a wide world after all."

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.

Bilbo says that he is happy to be "only quite a little fellow in a wide world after all." I agree with Bilbo. Being small in a big world would be fun. You would have endless possibilities. You would not be the center of attention, just a small person. I would be happy to live like this. I would not like being the center of attention, in a small world. Everyone watching your every move, asking you for advice. To me this is a very sad existence. You would get no alone time or down time. That is why I agree with Bilbo. It is better to be, "only quite a little fellow in a wide world after all."

After fending off trolls, discovering a ring in which made him invisible, escaping goblins, and also experiencing many other life-threatening and incredible events, Bilbo says he is pleased to be "only quite a little fellow in a wide world after all." He wishes to stay comfortably in his safe hobbit hole on The Hill. I can not say that I blame Mr. Baggins. Being a hobbit, it must have been very difficult going days without food! After reading about his adventures and hardships, it is quite understandable why he prefers the comfort of his home.
Personally, I wouldn't be happy to be "only quite a little fellow in a wide world after all." Repeating the same routine every single day would grow old. Sure, I enjoy having a warm meal when I'm hungry and a cozy sleeping place when I'm tired. Who doesn't? Overall, however, I'd much prefer the excitement of an adventure. If along the way I struggle with a few hardships, so be it. It would make going home all the more worth it.

At the end of The Hobbit Bilbo says he is pleased to be "only quite a little fellow in a wide world after all." I disagree with Bilbo. I would not like to be just a little fellow in a wide world after all. Bilbo is happy to sit in his hobbit-hole and never leave or venture out. I like to explore the unexplored I like being different from everyone else. I like to stand out in life. I could not just sit down and do nothing every single day. Many adventures bring much excitement to my life and excitement is exactly what my life needs. In the story Bilbo is certain that he is non-adventurous when he speaks with Gandalf but once he sets for the adventure he realizes there actually is some adventure in him. That was his chance to stand out, and stand out he does. If there is ever a chance for me to be different or stand out from everyone else in a good way I take it. Standing out in a different way makes me feel better about myself. It is better than just following the leader and doing what everyone else is doing. Bilbo admits to being pleased to be "only quite a little fellow in the world after all" and to avoid standing out but I am positive that I would not.

The Hobbit

There are many reasons Bilbo is pleased to be "only quite a little fellow in a wide world after all." Bilbo is pleased because there are many wonderful things he can do that others can't do. For example, Bilbo can sneak around better than other peole. He can be stealthy, quick, and fit in places others can't. Being "a little fellow" helps Bilbo on many of his quests and to overcome trials. That is why Bilbo says he is pleased to be "only quite a little fellow in a wide world after all."
I don't think I'd be happy to be "a little fellow" because there are certain things that you aren't able to do when you're small. I wouldn't be as strong if I was little. I wouldn't be able to carry better armor and use larger weapons if I was smaller. I am glad to be larger because I can survive better when I take a hit. There are many great things about being large. That is why I wouldn't be happy to be "only quite a little fellow in a wide world after all."

At the end of The Hobbit, Gandalf tells Bilbo that he is, "Only a quite little fellow in a wide world after all." Bilbo says that he is pleased to be a little fellow in a wide world. I disagree with Bilbo. He would rather stay in his hobbit-hole and eat and drink tea all day. To me, that is a boring life. At the beginning of the story, Bilbo hated going on adventures. I love going places I have never been before and accomplishing many things. I want to make a difference, stand out. Not sit back and do nothing like Bilbo did. Tomorrow is never promised to us. I want to live everyday like it was my last day on Earth. So no, I would not want to be, "Only a quite little fellow in a wide world after all."

I would not be pleased to be "only quite a little fellow in a wide world after all."I would like to be an adventurous person in the world,even thought Bilbo is happy about living alone.I would love to discover Earth's beautiful landscapes. I would not like to live a little hole all alone and drink tea and smoke tabacco like Bilbo loves to. I would love to have lots of friends and get married some day. Bilbo may be happy with living a little hole separated from the world alone, but not me. I'm too hyper to sit in silent hole. I never like to be be normal either. I've always wanted to stand out in a crowed. Bilbo may have stepped out of his normal life to help the dwarfs on their quest for gold in the mountains, but if they never came he would still be at his lonely little hole. Bilbo did show a large amount of courage and bravery in his quest, but when will another situation come up when his adventurous side would come out again? I would need more adventures than just one quest for gold. I would never like to be the "only quite a little fellow in a wide world after all."

In the end of The Hobbit, Bilbo is pleased to be “only quite a little fellow in a wide world after all.” I could not be content with living the life of a hobbit as Bilbo did because I would want more excitement in my life. Bilbo is happy to live all alone in his little hobbit hole. He is happy with who he is and his quiet, uneventful life. He doesn’t want to change even after he experienced such dangerous adventures. Bilbo had his chance to be important and be admired when he saved the dwarfs. Although I enjoy being alone sometimes and having peace and quiet, I couldn’t live like that all the time. If we just live life in the safety and security of our own home we would miss out on all of the adventures and plans God has for us. I wouldn’t want to live in a little hobbit hole without family and friends. I believe each person is given unique gifts and talents that should be shared with those around us to make this world a better place. For example, you may not be tall and strong, but like the hobbit you may have the ability to be quiet and swift. You can use your own abilities when given the opportunity to help someone else. Making a difference in the lives of others no matter how great or small cannot happen living life all alone as a hobbit. So even though Bilbo is pleased to be “only a quite a little fellow in a wide world after all”, I am certain that I would not be.

In the book, The Hobbit, Gandalf tells Bilbo in the end that "you are quite a little fellow in a wide world after all" and Bilbo replies by saying "Thank goodness!". In the beginning, Bilbo wasn't exactly happy about the dwarves dragging him into an adventure that had nothing to do with him. Bilbo seems very content with staying in his familiar hobbit hole, having the same routines, and not going on adventures. I would not be satisfied with being "quite a little fellow in a wide world", since I aspire to do my best. I couldn't have the same routine everyday, because I would feel like I wasn't accomplishing anything with my life. I want to make my own adventures and experience the world. I am the type of person who likes to express my ideas and opinions. I am not the type of person who keeps quiet and doesn't want to explore and face new challenges. Although you may experience ups and downs in life, you must be prepared to stand up and face your fears. Bilbo was able to face his fears during his adventure, and help defeat their foes despite the low expectations Bilbo had for himself. I want to make a difference in my life and the life of others. I would be disappointed if I was only "quite a little fellow in a wide world".

When Bilbo says that he is pleased to be "only quite a little fellow in the wide world after all" I think that he is happy to be a little fellow. I think Bilbo enjoyed the adventure but he would rather just stay at his hobbit hole. I ,unlike Bilbo, wouldn't have been alright with going back to my house after such a wonderful time. In the beginning of the story Bilbo didn't really want to go on the adventure, but as the story goes on I think Bilbo starts to enjoy the adventure. I wouldn't exactly want to be "only quite a little fellow in the wide world after all" because i would like to experience the world and see new things. Bilbo was the kind of person that would just rather stay at his house and do whatever his normal routine was. On the other hand Bilbo liked going on adventures because of his ancestors, the Tooks. I would've very much enjoyed the adventure. The reason I'm saying this is because I'm the kind of person that likes going to new places and trying new things. Anyways I think that Bilbo kind of enjoyed the adventure. Then again in the book it kept saying how Bilbo wished continuously that he could've just stayed home. Well Bilbo and I are two very different people.

No, I would not be happy to be "only quite a little fellow in a wide world after all." The reason why is because if you are only "quite a little fellow in a wide world after all," you are blending in and not getting noticed by the world. Bilbo seemed perfectly happy in his hobbit hole and not getting noticed. In fact, at the beginning of the story Bilbo was quite annoyed that the dwarfs and Gandalf even came to his hobbit hole and disturbed his quiet, peaceful, and uneventful life. That is most definitely not how i want my life to be. I want to stand out, be noticed, and not be afraid to stand strong against all of life's challenges and trials. What kind of difference can you make if you don't even allow yourself to stand out? All around you, people are choosing to live like Bilbo Baggins. They just want to be left alone and not noticed or payed attention to. They don't realize that they can actually make a difference.

He journeyed through the most perilous and terrifying adventures anyone had ever known, and  faced more terrifying things than some people even experience in their nightmares. What I'm trying to say is, i want my life to be something that will be remembered. My life is a gift. It can be taken away at any moment. Why not live every day like it's your last?
