CM: For example, “Nobody got out. We saw Atticus look up from his Newspaper. He closed it, folded it deliberately, dropped it in his lap, and pushed his hat to the back of his head. He seemed to expecting them.” CM: Reading Atticus showed no fear when men came closer and closer to where he was sitting under the light bulb in front of the Maycomb jail. SD: Also, two other characters in the book show something reverse from calmness, but they continue to grow. CM: Scout in the beginning of the book was always prepared for a fight.

CM: Sitting I look calmly up at the Stars remembering past memories and the people who cared for me with gentleness and the love they showed me over the years of my life.
