1. " It was hotter then: a black dog suffered on a summer's day"
This make's me think of my job in the summer at k-Mart,loading all those boxes, it was hot, and the days where long, and tough, I came home musty ever day that summer. BUT THE MONEY WAS GOOD. CH-1 pg.5
"Not in money"...
This quote reminded me of a time I had to pay some one back.But in return they didn't want no money of any source.Which made me wonder....

his make's me think of the time my big brother put a dog in to the house. I was saking, but my mom told me this say, and I did not let fear take me over. CH-1 pg.6
"There goes the meanest man ever God blew his breath into"! To me this quote means that god has given you life to pursue dreams,build a family,and to do right,But instead your throwing it a way by doing wrong to others.Not giving other people chances.To sum up God Should of Never givin you life.
page.4 1. "it was customary for the men in the family to remain on simon's homestead, finch's landing, and make their living from cotton."
I believe that even though men where the one's bringing home the bacon and doing all the hard work to make the best of what they have was great but, this is a new centuary and men and woman work together to support each other including working in the feilds helping out with hard labor.

3."I'm little but I'm old"

This make's me think of the time I was studying like crazy for a math test. I sudyed over and over again, I did not get a thing.Then my big brother told me to take it easy, I did, and I pass it with an A!
"He was so upright he took the word of god as his only law"! to me it means that you ake the word of god as your guide you live it, you learn it, and breath it.We know that we are not perfect but we try to be as god expect us to were human and we make mistakes but we try to live by the word of God every single day our lives.
