P.S. It is indeed interesting that the more knowledge Saruman (and Denethor too) acquire, the more they crave. A sort of addiction, perhaps, merely tasted in a glimpse by Pippin in the palantir, perhaps a drive to "know the mind of Eru" and thus replace him? A real Morgoth-ian tendency if ever there was one!

Nice point,
Lyta Underhill! I had noticed the addiction for knowledge with Saruman and Denethor but I hadn't gone as far as too correlate it with Morgoth and the need to know the mind of Eru. I thank you for pointing this out! Very interesting indeed!
