What line is Bilbo Baggins first mentioned in The Hobbit?

Bilbo Baggins' Diary Entry Dear diary, Today, after having thirteen unexpected guests over at my house I was taken on an adventure. I was only just starting to realize how far this journey would be and how much respect I would lose from my community when we were faced with three nasty trolls. Their names were Bert, Tom and William. They were complete morons. They were also very hungry and thought the dwarves would be perfect for dinner. Thankfully, they had no interest in eating me. Just as the first of the dwarves was about to be cooked, Gandalf made his move. Like me he had noticed that the trolls were not very smart. So when they were not looking he sneaked into the bushes behind them. Then he started teasing them but did it in a way that made the trolls think it was them. Once they were confused and had started fighting with each other, I slipped on my invisibility ring and set the dwarves free. After that Gandalf turned the trolls into stone and we had a lovely dinner. Although it was delicious, it was not a good start to our quest.


When was Bilbo selfless in The Hobbit?

Bilbo demonstrates selflessness multiple times in "The Hobbit," most notably when he offers to take on the role of burglar for the dwarves despite his initial reluctance and fear. He also risks his own safety to save the dwarves from spiders in Mirkwood Forest and from imprisonment by the Wood-elves. Additionally, Bilbo shows selflessness when he spares Gollum's life during their encounter in the dark caves, choosing not to kill him despite the potential threat.
