Chapter 31 Quotes and Theme


Growing up- By the end of the novel, Scout has grown into a lady. With the lesson she learns from Walter Cunningham’s visit, she treats Arthur as a guest with full respect. She no longer thinks of Boo as a mysterious man but as a neighbor who gave her more than she could ever return. When Boo asked Scout if she could take him home, she allowed Boo to keep his dignity by making it look as if Boo was escorting her down the sidewalk.


Perspective- Scout finally learns that if you really want to know a person, you have to stand in their shoes. The point of this lesson is to have sympathy for other people no matter who they are what they did. “Atticus was right. One time he said you never really know a man until you stand in his shoes and walk around in them. Just standing on the Radley porch was enough.” Pg. 279 For a brief moment, she finally sees the world as Boo Radley saw it and understands how Boo love her and Jem like his own children. Before going to bed, she tells Arthur that Boo Radley was real nice. “When they finally saw him, why he hadn’t done any of those things . . . Atticus, he was real nice. . . .” Pg. 281

Thanks Sniper, if possible could it be Alexander Keith's? Arguably the best Canadian beer, although I'd like to hear the Colonel's opinion on this as well...its almost a military matter

Hell no. Someone named Erica made one post in Introductions and got banned. Posting porn is not the way to grace us with your presence for very long.

Porn, really? In her opening statements. What a way to make an entrance.

Frankly I am a little surprised she did not get to stay longer with all the men here...

I am probably the only person in the world who hasn't seen Apocalypse Now, so I had to google that to understand what was going on

I had a case of Texas Lonestar in mind. Put some hair on your chest while also killing all forms of cancer and flushing your pipes.

LOL, lonestar is without a doubt the nastiest beer on earth.

"I am probably the only person in the world who hasn't seen Apocalypse Now"

Ugh.... "The horror".

Watch it, you'll like it, i guar-an-tee it.
