Who's your Gandalf? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Not being able to recollect a Sammy in my life, I thought to myself, 'but I certainly have a Gandalf.' My Gandalf is someone who "says it straight", who clears away the distracting inessentials and says, "this is what's really going on", and then encourages me, as if I were Theoden shrugging off the so-called caring gestures of Wormtongue, to action.

Do you have a Gandalf?
