- 1Dill"Dill was a curiosity."
- Scout Finch - 2Dill"He wore blue linen shorts that buttoned to his shirt, his hair was snow white and stuck to his head like duck-fluff; he was a year my senior but I towered over him. As he told us the old tale his blue eyes would lighten and darken; his laugh was sudden and happy; he habitually pulled at a cowlick in the centre of his forehead."
- Scout Finch - 3Dill"When Dill reduced Dracula to dust, and Jem said the show sounded better than the book, I asked Dill where his father was:..."I haven't got one."
- Dill - 4Dill"Dill had been studied and found acceptable."
- Scout Finch - 5Dill"In this matter we were lucky to have Dill."
- Scout Finch - 6Dill"Thus we came to know Dill as a pocket Merlin, whose head teemed with eccentric plans, strange longings and quaint fancies."
- Scout Finch - 7Dill"...it was then that Dill gave us the idea of making Boo Radley come out."
- 8Dill"The Radley place fascinated Dill. In spite of our warnings and explanations it drew him as the moon draws water, but drew him no nearer than the light-pole on the corner, a safe distance form the Radley gate. There he would stand, his arm around the fat pole, staring and wondering."
- Scout Finch - 9Dill"Well go on," said Dill"
- Scout - 10Dill"...I was miserable without him..."
- Scout Finch - 11Dill"He had asked me earlier in the summer to marry him, then he promptly forgot about it. He staked me out, marked as his property, said I was the only girl he would ever love, then he neglected me. I beat him up twice but it did no good, he only grew closer to Jem."
- Scout Finch - 12Dill"Dill Harris could tell the biggest ones I ever head. Among other things, he had been up in a mail plane seventeen times, he had been to Nova Scotia, he had seen an elephant, and his granddaddy was Brigadier General Joe Wheeler and left him his sword."
- Scout Finch - 13Dill"He evidently remembered he was engaged to me, for he ran back out and kissed me swiftly in front of Jem. "Yawl write, hear?" he bawled after us."
- Scout Finch - 14Dill"Dill concluded by saying he would love me for ever and not to worry, he would come get me and marry me as soon as he got enough money together, so please write."
- Scout Finch - 15Dill"The fact I had a permanent fiancé was little compensation for his absence: I had never thought about it, but summer was Dill by the fish-pool smoking string, Dill's eyes alive with complicated plans to make Boo Radley emerge; summer was the swiftness which Dill would reach up and kiss me when Jem was not looking, the longings we sometimes felt each other feel. With him, life was routine, without him, life was unbearable."
