“Hullo!鈥� said Merry. 鈥淪o that鈥檚 what is bothering you? Now, Pippin my lad, don鈥檛 forget Gildor鈥檚 saying鈥攖he one Sam used to quote: Do not meddle in the affairs of Wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger.鈥�
鈥淏ut our whole life for months has been one long meddling in the affairs of Wizards,鈥� said Pippin. 鈥淚 should like a bit of information as well as danger. I should like a look at that ball.鈥�

J.R.R. Tolkien, The Two Towers
