Quote
"I think I'll be a clown when I get grown," said Dill. "Yes, sir, a clown.... There ain't one thing in this world I can do about folks except laugh, so I'm gonna join the circus and laugh my head off." "You got it backwards, Dill," said Jem. "Clowns are sad, it's folks that laugh at them." "Well, I'm gonna be a new kind of clown. I'm gonna stand in the middle of the ring and laugh at the folks." ~Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird, Chapter 22

Can't nobody tell how it's gonna be, Nobody gonna make a fool out of me

I've never known a fire that didn't begin with a flame Every storm will start with just a drop of rain But if you believe in me That changes everything So long, I'm gone

They also have to do with following people that you look up to because they are brave. Quote
I wanted you to see what real courage is, instead of getting the idea that courage is a man with a gun in his hand. It's when you know you're licked before you begin but you begin anyway and you see it through no matter what. You rarely win, but sometimes you do. ~Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird, Chapter 11, spoken by the character Atticus.
Song Title is Courage Is by The Strange Familiar
Lyrics-
Courage is when you're afraid, But you keep on moving anyway
Courage is when you're in pain, But you keep on living anyway
The quote that I chose has to do with courage and determination to getting something done. This quote is important in the To Kill A Mockingbird book because it teaches Scout an important lesson about courage and determination. The lyrics are very much like the courage that Mrs. Dubose has when she is dying because she wants to die with no regrets. The lyrics mean that courage is the fight to keep on going when you don't want to go anymore. That's how the quote and the lyrics are similar.
Quote
So it took an eight-year-old child to bring 'em to their senses.... That proves something - that a gang of wild animals can be stopped, simply because they're still human. Hmp, maybe we need a police force of children. ~Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird, Chapter 16, spoken by the character Atticus
Song Title is Never Grow Up by Taylor Swift
Lyrics-
To you, everything's funnyYou got nothing to regretI'd give all I have, honeyIf you could stay like that
The quote has to do with children teaching grownups lessons that they couldn't learn themselves. In this case Scout didn't even now that she was teaching, the gang of men who wanted to hurt Atticus, a lesson because she was a child. Scout isn't knowledgeable about things at a young age and doesn't realize that she might of saved Atticus's life. The lyrics mean that when children grow up they understand better what their actions lead to. The quote and the lyrics are similar because they both have to do with children.
Quote They're certainly entitled to think that, and they're entitled to full respect for their opinions... but 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. ~Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird, Chapter 11, spoken by the character Atticus Song Title is Respect by Train
Lyrics-
Everybody needs a little respectEverybody needs a little timeEverybody needs a little respectEverybody needs a little
Citation- "RESPECT Lyrics - TRAIN." Song Lyrics. Elyrics Net. Web. 16 Nov. 2011. http://www.elyrics.net/read/t/train-lyrics/respect-lyrics.html. The quote means two different things, which are about respect and people. The respect part has to do with respected others opinions even when you don't agree with their opinion because that's what they deserve. The people part of the quote means that people have to live with the decisions that they make. The song lyrics means that everyone no matter how good or bad of a person they're deserve respect. That's how the quote and the song lyrics are similar. Quote
When a child asks you something, answer him, for goodness' sake. But don't make a production of it. Children are children, but they can spot an evasion quicker than adults, and evasion simply muddles 'em. ~Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird, Chapter 9, spoken by the character Atticus Song Title is Better Than Revenge by Taylor Swift
Lyrics-
She took him faster than you can say sabotageI never saw it coming, wouldn't have suspected itI underestimated just who I was dealing with
The quote means that you shouldn't try to beat around the bush giving children answers. Children can spot evasion from an answer quicker than adults because adults questions are almost never evaded but some children's questions get evaded. They get evaded because the answer isn't usually appropriate for how old they are. The lyrics mean that someone took another person's boyfriend. This has to do with the quote because they both have to do with evasion and trickery.
