Courage

"I wanted you to see what real courage is, instead of getting the idea that courage is a man with a gun in his hand.  It's when you know you're licked before you begin but you begin anyway and you see it through no matter what.  You rarely win, but sometimes you do."
-Atticus Finch

I'm pretty sure the world would be a better place if everyone would read, To Kill a Mockingbird.  What a read it really is!!

I LOVE To Kill A Mockingbird! There are so many great quotes from that book.

I'm glad you're enjoying it. I always feel bad when I recommend books to people that they don't really like.

I read that book for the fist time in 7th grade and even then it hit me as a fine novel. I need to read it again. Such a good quote--I love that Atticus!
