We have reached number six, in our countdown of quotations from the top 10 most popular books in the UK (according to the BBC Big Read 2003). The sixth most voted-for book was To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee. This was one of three books in the top ten I gave 10/10 for enjoyment when I read it. It is also the book that appears most often on "must-read" lists.
There is tonnes in this book about justice and injustice, fighting, winning, courage and morality. But I quite like this little observation...
"There are just some kind of men who - who're so busy worrying about the
next world they've never learned to live in this one, and you can look
down the street and see the results."
