No! Gandalf is not talking about things that he and Tom have in common, he is talking about how they are different. An African Violet tends to stay in one place (gathering moss, perhaps) and a robin flies about much of the time (doomed to roll, as it were), are they part of the same order?

Goldberry would seem to be a Maia, but I really don't know what she is. If she is a Maia, which she probably is, it wouldn't be the first time one married someone that isn't. Remember Melian?

&quot;No one else is reputed as to have done so.&quot; What about Ungoliant?

What's a burrahobbit got to do with my pocket, anyways?</p>
