For no real reason, just wanted to share my absolute favorite quote from the book "To Kill A Mockingbird"
"I'd rather you shoot 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 first time i had 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 is a sin to kill a mockingbird."
Kind of random but this just really hit me. The book was totally awsome.
