to nearly every family in the town."

can hit 'em, but remember It's a sin to kill a
mockingbird".

until you climb into his skin and walk in it."

everybody's daddy the deadest shot in
Maycomb County."

had to, and he had to today"

"Atticus was feeble: he was nearly
fifty" "he didn't do anything"
- Consistent and couteous: "Atticus Finch is the
same man in his house as he is on the public
streets"
- A father: "Jem and I found our father satisfactory: he played
with us, read to us, and treated us with courteous
detachment."
- A Good lawyer: "he's the only man in these parts who
can keep a Jury out so long."
