"therefore, keep the commandments, of the LORD your G-D, by walking in his ways, and fearing him. for the LORD your G-D, is bringing you into a good country, a land with streams of water, with springs and fountains welling up in the hills and valleys, a land of wheat and barley, of vines and fig trees and pomegranates, of olive trees and of honey, a land where you can eat your bread without stint and where you will lack nothing.........but if you forget the LORD, your G-D, and follow other gods, serving and worshiping them, i forewarn you on this day you will perish utterly."

" atticus said to jem one day, "i would rather you shot tin cans in the backyard, but i know you'll go after birds. shoot all the blue jays you want, if you hit 'em, but remember it's a sin to kill a mockingbird." that was the first time i 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 except make music for us to enjoy. they don't eat up people's gardens, don't nest in corn cribs, they don't do one thing but sing their hearts out for us. that's why it's a sin to kill a mockingbird."
