It's illegal to advocate Nazism in Germany; in the U.S., you can do it
as much as you like, but if you say certain words with sexual denotations
on the radio or TV, you find yourself in trouble.  (On the other hand,
you can print almost anything.)

To say that Bilbo's breath was taken away is no description at all.  There are
no words left to express his staggerment, since Men changed the language that
they learned of elves in the days when all the world was wonderful. --The Hobbit
