[in the troll hoard, Gandalf steps on a small Elf-made sword; he goes out of the cave and walks up to Bilbo]
Gandalf: Bilbo.
Bilbo: Hmm?
Gandalf: Here. [gives Bilbo the sword] This is about your size.

Bilbo: I have... I have never used a sword in my life.
Gandalf: And I hope you never have to. But if you do, remember this: true courage lies in knowing not when to take a life, but when to spare one.
Gandalf: Bilbo.
Bilbo: Hmm?
