To Kill a mocking bird

 

A simple book in simple language but great meaning. Harper Lee's 'To Kill a mocking bird' 
This book has a lot of good things about treating oneself and others with respect.
A must read .

Memorable quotes -.
I never loved to read. One does not love breathing.

Mocking birds don't do one thing except make music for us to enjoy...that's why it is a sin to kill a mocking bird.

Before I can live with other folks , I've got to live with myself. The one thing that does not abide
by majority rule is a person's conscience - pg 120

On courage - 
instead of getting the idea that courage is a man with a gun in his hand..its when you know you're kicked before before you begin anyway and you see through it no matter what 

You rarely win, but sometimes you do  

One time he said you never really know a man until you stand in his shoes and walk around in them - pg 321.

There is just one kind of folks..folks -
