Gandalf's body was mortal, subject to the physical rules of Middle Earth, but his spirit was immortal, as seen when he died as Gandalf the Grey and resurrected as Gandalf the White.
Trupul lui Gandalf era muritor, supus legilor fizice din Pământul de Mijloc, dar spiritul era nemuritor, aşa cum am văzut când a murit  ca Galdalf cel Gri şi a înviat ca Galdalf cel Alb.
