    I never even read To Kill A Mockingbird​.
    "Those who produce should have, but we know that those who produce the most — that is, those who work hardest, and at the most difficult and most menial tasks, have the least."
    - Eugene V. Debs (1855-1926), five-time Socialist Party candidate for U.S. President

    So I've been told. It's on my list, though I may not get to it until next year. My list for this year is quite full.

    If you havent seen the movie, watch it also. Gregory Peck is Atticus. I saw the movie before I ever read the book. I named one of my girls Scout in honor of this book. Love it.

    Too many books to read and not enough time to read them. I remember reading C.S. Lewis' biography e few years ago and was amazed at how many books he had read by age twelve. He grew up in a house where essentially they did what they pleased and had a very large library. I remember just thirsting for books as a kid and in desperatin read whatever I could find on our book shelves.

    Truman Capote visited his aunt in Monroeville AL as a child. She assisted him working on In Cold Blood. He was jealous of her success with Mockingbird & started the rumor that he helped write it. The friendship did not endure.

    Same here... It's one of those books I'll get to, but have other books as my priorities...
