gptkbp:notableQuote “You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view.”
“It’s never an insult to be called what somebody thinks is a bad name. It just shows you how poor that person is, it doesn’t hurt you.”
“The one thing that doesn’t abide by majority rule is a person’s conscience.”
“Until I feared I would lose it, I never loved to read. One does not love breathing.”
“Mockingbirds don’t do one thing but make music for us to enjoy.”
