"Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm."

Man, his quotes are everywhere. I've never read his essays but I definitely know of his name from the Transcendentalist movement (on one random day of Googling XD).

My calculus teacher has like 7 different posters with quotes by him on them. I'd take pictures but she's very strict about phones.

Today in Literature History…

On this day in 1926 in Montgomery, Alabama, a legend in literature was born. Many years later, this woman would come to publish one the most well respected and most sold books in history, To Kill a Mockingbird. Today is Harper Lee's Birthday!

Oh my gosh, she died this year! D: Shortly after my birthday. Aw. :c Well, happy birthday. It would have been her 90th!

I have not read that book, though.

Read To Kill a Mockingbird. It's like the second most sold book in the US. Don't read Go Set a Watchman though. That was published against Harper Lee's will and it sucks. Her family published it only because they wanted money.

Yeah I've been hearing about it all my life but still haven't read it. xD And darn, really? I read on Wikipedia that To Kill a Mockingbird was the only book she published until last year... That was her draft for TKAMB, yeah? How rude that they did it against her will!

Pretty much. It was a character development exploration draft. She never wanted it to be published. And she never wanted to publish another book because she knew it would never be as good as TKAMB.
