Quote:
Saruman; he was a tragic story, once good and wise, but he was corrupted by Sauron and became just another lackey for Sauron's will, and even after he was beaten, he was still a victim of his own bitterness and deceit, grasping at power he could not touch.
i believe that saruman was corrupted by his greed and lust for power, so when Sauron promised him power, he went for it without a second thought.

That was exceedingly insightful, One Axe! I would have to agree with your analysis of Saruman. We know that at one point in time he was good, but something did corrupt him. It appears even the extremely powerful can fall victim to the temptations of power.
