The Sound of the Mockingbird

Harper Lee
Born this day in 1926

Before I can live with other folks I've got to live with myself.
The one thing that doesn't abide by majority rule is a person's conscience.

The author of To Kill A Mockingbird also said, "Well it's better to be silent than to be a fool." See And They Didn't Read This, Either. Too bad the Bush missed that lesson, among others.

And if you wonder why I'm such a fan, see this: Who Am I?
