looking for a specific quote....

I don't have the patience right now to actually look for it myself so I'm looking to you people.... don't you feel special ;-)

it's something Gandalf says about how you can learn the ways of hobbits in such and such amount of time but after such and such amount of time they can still suprise you he says it to Frodo in the movie when he is about to embark on his journey
