Gandalf knows that Gollum is not entirely evil. There is still the good "Smeagol" side to him. Even though he is very wise Gandalf cannot see the ultimate fate of the Ring, but he senses that Gollum will have some part to play for good or evil, so, like he says, "the pity of Bilbo [and himself] may rule the fate of many." Also, Gandalf is not the type of person who will kill recklessly. And he himself, good and powerful though he is, has been tempted by the Ring's power, so he can vaguely understand Gollum's misery. Gandalf is very much like Jesus, who was tempted by Satan and can understand, though not agree with, a human's lust for power and easily corruptible heart.

In the book, he says nothing special to Frodo - it is at the guard room where he cannot decide that Pippin knocks something heavy down the well awakening the goblins and balrog. In the movie, there are two noteworthy exchanges, both which occurred elsewhere in the book. Frodo - (upon seeing Golum) "I wish Bilbo had killed him when he had the chance." Gandalf - "Many who live deserve death, and some that die deserve life - can you give it to them? Do not be so quick to deal out death and judgement. For Even the very wisest cannot see all ends." Frodo - "I wish the ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened" Gandalf - "So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us."
Gandalf is worried that Smaug may become an ally to the newly returned Sauron.
At the unexpected party, Gandalf gives Thorin a map of the Lonely Mountain, which has information about a secret door and the key to the secret door.
Gandalf only gives Thorin the key and the map (they go together) because they are rightfully his( being given to Gandalf by Thorin's relatives).
Gandalf noticed the ring turning Bilbo crazy so he forced him to give it up and leave it behind

Gandalf gives him "My pardon. I give it you. In fact I will go so far as to send you on this adventure."
{| |- | Gandalf did not give Thorin a gold chain. Gandalf gave Thorin the key that he had gotten from Thorin's father. Thorin then took the key and placed it on a gold chain that he was wearing around his neck. |}
Gandalf gave them many things. The two actual objects were a key and a map. He also provided them with a burglar.
"Eat, drink, and be merry" IS a sentence.
I'm not sure what you mean. Thorin's grandfather never gave Gandalf a mountain. As far as I know, Thorin's grandfather (Thror) died in Moria without ever meeting Gandalf. Gandalf did meet Thrain, Thorin's father, in the dungeons of the Necromancer and Thrain did give Gandalf a MAP of a mountain. And if your question is what is on the mountain on the map that Thrain, not Thror, gave Gandalf, in my edition of the Hobbit, it's a small picture of a dragon. Some of the spurs of the mountain also look like they're on top of it, but it's just a bird's eye perspective.
Gandalf had met Thorin's father. He gave him a map and a key that his father wanted him to have.
