So I had to read 'To Kill a Mockingbird', because, well, I'm pretty sure it's a legal requirement for an English student... anyway... Atticus Finch - what a man. I'm not talking Gregory Peck, who, let's face it, was a bit of a fox back in the day.
Atticus Finch is one half of the perfect father - he's wise, patient and aggressive when necessary. For those that are interested, the other half of the perfect father is David Bowie, because he's fabulous and because of the song 'Kooks'. If those two were a gay couple, I would hand over my children like that. Take 'em! Make them fabulously intelligent, moral and stable citizens! Buy them pairs of shoes! And trumpets they can blow! And books of rules!
Anyway, here's some words of wisdom from him:
"The one thing that doesn't abide by majority rule is a person's conscience."
"You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view-until you climb into his skin and walk around in it."
"People in their right minds never take pride in their talents."
About Sophie
- Sophie
- Sophie formed from the mould found on the bottom of a writer's mug of tea. Not much is known about the writer, except that they were shite. A considerable amount is known about the mug, however: it was a white mug with The Beatles images on the side. Many believe this is the cause of many of Sophie's traits, such as her pale shiny skin and her treatment of The Beatles like Gods. Some might say Sophie talks too much crap. Some might say her use of large font is quite irritating. Some might say she’s a twat. All of these are true of course, but you’re the one reading the blog so now who’s the twat, eh? This is the blog of Sophie, and her adventures, thoughts and opinions.
