One reasonably perceptive critic termed Turin the "failed Aragorn." Discuss.

This may, to some extent, reflect the differences between Morgoth and Sauron. Morgoth wanted to reduce everything to a nullity (Curse = Destruction). Sauron wanted to rule everything and be worshiped as the world’s god…i.e. he had a purpose beyond destruction, reflected in the Ring, while it would destroy its bearers was not doing it simply for the sake of destruction…it was trying to do something. Perhaps when viewed from the different ends that the Curse and the Ring had in mind, maybe this does show different types of evil.
