To Kill a Mockingbird






“You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view... Until you climb inside of his skin and walk around in it.” 




 


“People generally see what they look for, and hear what they listen for.” 





 

“People in their right minds never take pride in their talents.” 






“Mockingbirds don’t do one thing but make music for us to enjoy. They don’t eat up people’s gardens, don’t nest in corncribs, they don’t do one thing but sing their hearts out for us. That’s why it’s a sin to kill a mockingbird.” 






 “With him, life was routine; without him, life was unbearable.” 






 

 “It’s never an insult to be called what somebody thinks is a bad name. It just shows you how poor that person is, it doesn’t hurt you.” 




“There are just some kind of men who-who're so busy worrying about the next world they've never learned to live in this one, and you can look down the street and see the results.”


Harper Lee
