Harper Lee
You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view.
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.
Before I can live with other folks, I’ve got to live with myself. The one thing that doesn’t abide by majority rule is a person’s conscience.
Daylight, in my mind, the night faded.
Delete the adjectives and [you'll] have the facts.
When a child asks you something, answer him, for goodness' sake!
Things are never as bad as they seem.
There's something in our world that makes men lose their heads--they couldn't be fair if they tried.
Best way to clear the air is to have it all out in the open.
You really never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view...until you climb into his skin and walk around in it.
Simply because we were licked a hundred years before we started is no reason for us not to try to win.
