"If there's just one kind of folks, why can't they get along with each other!? If they're all alike, why do they go out of their way to despise each other!? Scout, I think I'm beginning to understand something!. I think I'm beginning to understand why Boo Radley's stayed shut up in the house all this time!.it's because he wants to stay inside!." -Jem

Atticus said to Jem, "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 hear Atticus say it was a sin to do something, and I asked Miss Maudie about it!. "You're 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 mocking bird!." -Scout (This pertains to Boo because the moral behind the novel is that it is a sin to harm something that does nothing but good!. Boo Radley has never done anything to hurt any of the residents of Maycomb, yet he is the fear of most all of them!. This quote is really about Boo!.)Www@QuestionHome@Com
