Power, it is something that everyone wants, it classifies us. “To Kill a Mockingbird” is about a powerless black man, Tom Robinson, accused of raping a white woman, Mayella Ewell. Because of Mayella’s class and gender she is powerless, but her race makes her have a little more power.

What exactly is power? Is it being able to control someone or simply being able to have everything under control. In To Kill A Mockingbird we will see different perspectives on things and on situations. For example, would you believe a colored man or a white woman. Is Mayella powerless because of her class and gender or is she powerful because of her race?

In chapters eleven through fifteen, Janie goes from not trusting Tea Cake to having complete trust in him. At first, Janie was cautious of Tea Cake because her friends warned her that he would marry her only for her money “you oughtn’t ‘low dat Tea Cake tuh be walkin’ tuh de house wid yuh”(102). The town’s people think that Janie should not waste her time with Tea Cake on account of him being poor.

Atticus as a lot of respect for everyone and this became evident when he went to the Robinson’s house to inform Helen of the death of Tom. On page 321 it says, “A little girl came to the cabin door and stood looking at Atticus. Dill said her hair was a wad of tiny stiff pigtails, each ending in a bright bow. She grinned from ear to ear and walked toward our father, but she was too small to navigate the steps. Dill said Atticus went to her, took off his hat, and offered her his finger. She grabbed it and he eased her down the steps. Then he gave her to Calpurnia.” This quote portrays Atticus as warm, friendly character that has a degree of courtesy to everyone no matter how big or small, black or white, how old or how young. Likewise, on Scout’s

The reason I chose this quote is because O’Brien reflects on his own storytelling after Bowker sends him a letter asking for a story. The letter that Bowker sends inspires O’Brien to use his own storytelling to help cope with his own experiences. This quote helps in proving that sometimes telling the truth in a story is not as important as emotional truth.The whole key of the book.

From Jonas’ point of view, bravery is defined as the ability to volunteer to do something in order to help the life/lives of someone or a group of people. He believes that bravery is sacrificing your life in order to save others. For example, on page 118, it states, “I’ll come back tomorrow, sir,’ he said quickly. Then he hesitated. ‘Unless, maybe there’s something I can do to help.’ The Giver looked up at him, his face contorted with suffering. ‘Please,’ he gasped, ‘take some of the pain.’.......The hands came, and the pain came with them and through them. Jonas braced himself and entered the memory which was torturing The Giver.” This quote proves how to Jonas, bravery and courage is when you unexpectedly volunteer to do something painful or dangerous in order to reduce the pain and danger of someone else. In this quote, Jonas volunteered to take some of The Giver’s burden away from him. Here, he was being brave. According to page 143, it also states, “And he, Jonas, would never have done it-never have requested release, no matter how difficult

What would happen if you lived in a world with no emotion, no emotion, and no choice? This is exactly the case in The Giver. When a boy, Jonas, who lives in a futuristic community starts to receive memories from the Giver he realizes there are so many beautiful yet terrible things inside and outside of the community. He dosen’t know another way to save the community from sameness except to release his memories to the community, good and bad. Three things that could have been done to the community to avoid this is adding the arts, emotions, and weather.

“People gossip. People are insecure, so they talk about other people so that they won't be talked about. They point out flaws in other people to make them feel good about themselves. I think at any age or any social class, that's present” (Blake Lively).  This quote by Blake Lively shows how economic class affects of lives.  Economic class is a colossal part of To Kill a Mockingbird because people in need of money have to use unexpected materials as a last resort, other people put others down due to their lack of money, and money could affect one's actions, but the way of being raised affects it most.

"You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view ... Until you climb inside his skin and walk around in it," is the concept that Harper Lee used in his book "To Kill A. Mockingbird. The main idea of the whole book is that people are "entitled to think that, and they're entitled to full respect for their opinions... but before I can live with other folks I've got to live with myself. The only thing that does not abide by that majority rule is a person's conscience." These were words spoken by Atticus, but written by Harper Lee. The words can have many different meanings. In the book Harper Lee shows us that killing a mockingbird is wrong because all they do is sing beautifully for the people around them.

William Godwin lives his life by the meaningful quote he wrote, “No man knows the value of innocence and integrity but he who has lost them.” A variety of characters in the eye opening novel, “To Kill a Mockingbird”, can deeply connect to this quote. Each time someone who is innocent gets pushed over by death or situations they do not deserve, it’s as if someone are killing or threatening a mockingbird. Everyone in life, no matter who they are, needs to realize they cannot judge others based off of their physical appearances. Instead, they need to realize who people are internally.

“Simply because we were licked a hundred years before we started is not reason not to try…” said Harper Lee’s beloved Atticus in To Kill a Mockingbird. This quote refers to moral courage, or real courage according to Atticus. Moral courage is picking, “...the hard right over the easy wrong,” (Kidder and Barcy), doing what is right by moral standards, even though it may be different from or discouraged by others. This courage is defined by heart, persistence, and character; having the conviction to try, the will to keep going, and being able to do the right thing when no one else is watching. Moral courage is important, to the individual and society as a whole for several reasons.

Aunt Alexandra’s way of policing who Scout may play with is unjust because her judgement of character is ruled by the reputation that person’s background holds, rather than the actual trustworthiness of the individual. My parents are more lenient, and generally allow me to associate with whoever I please, as long as they are not considered a bad influence. At the most extreme lengths, my parents will interrogate the parents of my friends by phone to see if they have a good reputation, but that is the farthest they will take. My parents are amicable enough to trust me to make friends with likable and responsible people. If I were to enforce the type of people my kids were to hang out with, I would try to get them involved with others who were
