- 1The Cunningham's"Walter Cunningham's face told everybody in the first grade he had hookworms. His absence of shoes told us how he got them. People caught hookworms going bare-foot in barn-yards and hog wallows. If Walter had owned any shoes he would have worn them the first day of school and discarded t hem until mid-winter. He did have a clean shirt and neatly mended overalls."
- Scout Finch - 2The Cunningham's"Here's a quarter," she said to Walter. "Go and eat down-town today. You can pay me back tomorrow." Walter shook his head. "Nome thank you ma'am,"
- Walter Cunningham - 3The Cunningham's"Miss Caroline, he's a Cunningham." I sat back down. "What Jean-Louise?" I thought I had made things sufficiently clear."
- Scout Finch - 4The Cunningham's"Walter Cunningham was sitting there lying his head off. He didn't forget his lunch, he didn't have any. He had none today nor would he have any tomorrow or the next day. He had probably never seen three quarters together in the same place in his life."
- Scout Finch - 5The Cunningham's"The Cunningham's never took anything they cant pay back - no church baskets and no scrip stamps. They never took anything off of anybody, they get along with what they have. They don't have much but they get along on it."
- Scout Finch - 6The Cunningham's"As the Cunningham's had no money to pay a lawyer, they simply paid us with what they had."
- Scout Finch - 7The Cunningham's"Walter piled food on his plate...Walter poured syrup on his vegetables and meat with a generous hand."
- Scout Finch
