Yes ! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] We all ( well most of us [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] ) know this, (people have depth) but it is often tempting to jump in and make shallow one dimensional judgments about others. Especially when "gossiping"! Gandalf is the wise one! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
What is the bit of difference from Butterbur's 'hidden' wisdom, and Farmer Maggot's? Farmer M seems more macho.... [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] but some of the hobbits are surprised he is such a "guy in the know". (is it Bombadil AND Gandalf that say he's smart?)
