I agree that we could use most of the characters quailities today. I felt they all showed an incredible honesty. There is a line in the book where Sam makes the coment about Borimir that he did not lie that was not like him and this was even after all suspected he was sucomming to the Ring. Also the responsiblity the fellowship takes on in their journey. I like the loyality of all esp. Sam as well as Merry and Pippin. These 3 came only to help Frodo. I like whoever said that about Gandolf's patience and love for the fellowship, since he knew more and had so much power but he was allways kind and patient guiding them. Gimli and Leg. overcoming so much past history to become friends is pretty neat, too. I guess I like them all. Of course Aragorn embodies so may good qualities, you name it he has it.
