Quotes containing the word finch
1. 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 see it through no matter what.- Atticus Finch
- Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird
