To Kill a Mockingbird
by Harper Lee
Quotes from Ms. Jean Louise ("Scout") Finch
"This night my mind was filled with Halloween -- there was to be a pageant representing our county's agricultural products; I was to be a ham. Jem said he would escort me to the school auditorium. Thus began our longest journey together."
(This quote always reminds me of the bond I have with my twin brother. Regardless of how young or old we are/were, he is always my best friend.)
"Neighbours bring food with death, and flowers with sickness, and little things in between. Boo was our neighbour. He gave us two soap dolls, a broken watch and chain, a knife, and our lives."
(This quote brings back memories of the way we should all treat each other - exemplified by both of my grandmothers and the other women in my family. It also reminds me of all the "Boos" I have known in my life - at many different ages - and what each one taught me.)
