and your quoting brings this one to mind, Davem:
Quote:

Aragorn in FotR: 'There are many evil and unfriendly things in the world that have little love for those that go on two legs, and yet are not in league with Sauron, but have purposes of their own. Some have been in this world longer than he.'

dont forget cruel Caradhras
"...longer than Sauron" is significant, almost Bombadillian.
perhaps there are just as many good and friendly things in the world as well
