"If you take a stand [for God] and mean it, you may suffer persecution. Some of your friends will drift away. They don't want to be with people like you. You speak to their conscience. They feel uncomfortable in your presence because you live for God."

"Trying to engage with an unapproachable person can lead to embarrassment, alienation, and resistance. Why would we set ourselves up for that kind of pain and failure? It's no wonder that people may avoid them-the risk of rejection is too great."

"Love is such a tremendous force of feeling! When you can't stop loving, you simply cannot stop it."

"Go! Yes, You! Go! I will not force you to like me; I will not force you to love me. Unconditional love has a condition inside it but there is no you in me. If I know my real me, then I know your real you. I know your value in me and I also know my value in you. If your value is not in me and my value is not in you, then I will not force you to like me; I will not force you to love me, so go!"

"Summer was on the way; Jem and I awaited it with impatience. Summer was our best season: it was sleeping on the back screened porch in cots, or trying to sleep in the tree house; summer was everything good to eat; it was a thousand colors in a parched landscape; but most of all, summer was Dill."
Life
"I wanted you see what real courage is, instead of getting the idea that courage is a man with a gun in his hand."
Motivation
"The white supremacists are really pretty smart. If they can't scare us with the essential inferiority line, they'll wrap it in a miasma of sex, because that's the only thing they know is feared in our fundamentalist hearts down here."

"Any writer worth his salt writes to please himself...It's a self-exploratory operation that is endless. An exorcism of not necessarily his demon, but of his divine discontent."
Writing
"We're so rarely called on to be Christians, but when we are, we've got men like Atticus to go for us."
Faith
"Prejudice, a dirty word, and faith, a clean one, have something in common: they both begin where reason ends."
Philosophy
"Are you proud of yourself tonight that you have insulted a total stranger whose circumstances you know nothing about?"
Ethics
"People have a habit of doing everyday things even under the oddest conditions."
Life
"There was nowhere to go, but I turned to go and met Atticus's vest front. I buried my head in it and listened to the small internal noises that went on behind the light blue cloth: his watch ticking, the faint crackle of his starched shirt, the soft sound of his breathing.'Your stomach's growling,' I said.'I know it,' he said."
Relationship
"We know all men are not created equal in the sense some people would have us believe. Some people are smarter than others, some people have more opportunity because they're born with it, some men make more money than others, some ladies make better cupcakes than others; some are born gifted beyond the normal scope of most men."
