York Notes: To Kill a Mockingbird
Variante: Aber wenn es nur eine Art von Menschen gibt, warum können sie dann nicht miteinander auskommen? Wenn sie alle gleich sind, warum haben sie dann nichts anderes im Kopf als sich gegenseitig zu verabscheuen? Scout, so allmählich wird mir was klar. So allmählich wird mir klar, weshalb Boo Radley die ganze Zeit im Haus bleibt... Er tut´s, weil er drinbleiben will

Variante: Courage is not a man with a gun in his hand. It's knowing 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.
Quelle: To Kill a Mockingbird (1962)
Kontext: 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 see it through no matter what. You rarely win, but sometimes you do.

Kontext: "I'd rather you shot at tin cans in the back yard, but I know you'll go after birds. Shoot all the bluejays you want, if you can hit ‘em, but remember it's a sin to kill a mockingbird." That was the only time I ever heard Atticus say it was a sin to do something, and I asked Miss Maudie about it.
“Your father's right," she said. "Mockingbirds don't do one thing but make music for us to enjoy. They don't eat up people's gardens, don't nest in corncribs, they don't do one thing but sing their hearts out for us. That's why it's a sin to kill a mockingbird."
