” The most peaceful of all the regions in Eriador, the shire is the home of the hobbits. Famous for its rolling hills, quaint streams and green fields, it is one of the most beautiful lands in all middle Earth for its simplicity. Hobbits homes are nestled against the countryside, flower beds and vegetables gardens as much a part of the land as several rivers that flow through it.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien

“In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a hobbit-hole, and that means comfort”

– J.R.R. Tolkien, The Hobbit
