Quote Analysis 1."Why do you reckon Boo Radley's never run off?"Dill sighed a long sigh and turned away from me. "Maybe he doesn't have anywhere to run off to....."
2. Response: I chose this quote because it shows how unfortunet peoples lives can be. for boo its so bad that he doesnt have anywhere to run to. it also shows that not only does scout think about why boo is still here but for how sorry she is for him.
3. Significance: It shows that scout is maturing and not only thinking of what people say, but thinks about how people feel. "to crawl into there skin and feel how they do." as i quote from atticus scout is finally seeing what atticus means by that, and not to judge people by other peoples words but by ho0w they are treated and how they react. "cant judge a book by its cover"

1. This quote shows how much the town doesn't know Boo. They don't even know if he has any relatives or friends that he can run off to.
2. I think Boo stays in his house because of the way the town looks upon him. They look at him as an outcast, and I think because of this "status" that they have given him, he is afraid how they will act if he shows his face.
3. Scout is maturing very interestingly. She is not maturing as a girl, but this isn't necessarily a bad thing. Such as when Scout ran into the center of the group of people and "saved" Atticus.

Questions
1. Because he is scared of everyone and everything around him. He probably won't even go around Nathan. Or possibly he is dead. I mean him being alive isn't needed for the story to keep going. All thats needed is that the kids think he's still alive.
2. Yes I do, in a certain way. She is understanding why people act the way they do and why people do certain things. But I don't think that her personality is maturing. Its still the tom-boy it always was.

For one its not ho0w, its how. But I have a didn't opinion about this quote. I think that it is showing how Dill and Jem are maturing. They are starting to notice things in their environment and trying to understand them. Sount is just someone they can bounce ideas off of.
