To Kill A Mockingbird Really Doesnt Have Much To Do With Killing Mockingbirds But It's A Pretty Good Read

"I swore never to read again after I gained no useful information about killing mockingbirds from To Kill A Mockingbird." Homer Simpson

I love the texture and intimacy of Harper Lee's To Kill A Mockingbird, or A rich and satisfying book.Willa Cather's My Antonia, or Harriette Arnow's The Dollmaker. If Homer hasn't read anything since then, he's missing out. My second semester of college, the student paper had a list of 40 classics, and said that if you hadn't read at least half of them, you weren't ready for college. Despite being a long-time, avid reader, I had read only one of the books listed. So I set a goal to read them all, which I did over the next two years.

A good book, great literature, is worth 100 times its weight in gold. It entertains, it teaches, it humbles, it lifts, it transforms. I know Brian Tracy said that reading within your profession for 30 minutes a day would double your income. But take some time for other literature, too.
