Lia's quote:"It's not necessary to tell all you know.It's not ladylike---in the second place,folks don't like to have somebody around known' more than they do.It aggravates 'em.You're not gonna change any of them by talking' right,they've got to want to learn themselves,and when they don't want to learn there's nothing you can do but keep your mouth shut or talk their language."(Lee 167)

Character Connection 1 Alex:"There's some folks who don't eat like us," she whisperedfiercely, "but you ain't called on to contradict 'em at the table whenthey don't. That boy's yo' comp'ny and if he wants to eat up the tablecloth you let him, you hear?""He ain't company, Cal, he's just a Cunningham-""Hush your mouth! Don't matter who they are, anybody sets foot inthis house's yo' comp'ny, and don't you let me catch you remarkin'(Lee,24)

[] This is a beautiful song for mothers.I think Calpurnia treat Scout and Jem as if they were her children,which is so great for a nigger in a white people's family.Calpurnia is educated and kind,she taught them how to read,how to be a strong person,told them what is right and what is wrong.Scout and Jem does not have the mother when they are still children or even teenagers,but it does not mean that they two lose mother's love.Calpurnia looks after them carefully when the first day she worked for Atticus.So I think the Finch is so thankful towards Calpurnia.
