Mockingbird questions #6

When i was reading the book, To Kill A Mockingbird, I learned many lessons from different characters. Mostly from Atticus's wise comments to Jem and Scout about how to treat others with respect and how to react to some things. Also i learned some lessons from the kids from their actions and what happened to them and what mistakes they made. One lesson I learned was from Atticus when he said, "You can't know someone until you have walked around in their shoes", i think he is right about this. I think he is saying that people are different and you can't know why unless you look a gander in their shoes.
Another Lesson i learned was from when Jem and Scout were saved by Boo Radley durring their walk home after the pageant. In this instance he was kind of an angel that has been watching them their whole life and came to save them. There is someone like this for everyone wether you have been saved already or he/she is still watching you. This, among others was my most important lesson of the book because it also taught me, if you are scared of something it probably is not that bad and may eventually aid you in some way.
