Sometimes one's enough.

If someone were to ask me what book I would seriously nominate as "The Great American Novel," rather than some great, sweeping, panoramic saga, I would respond with To Kill a Mockingbird.

Atticus Finch = personal integrity.

P. S. And the movie held up to the book. Gregory Peck's portrayal of a quiet, dignified man who stood solid as a rock on his principles was superb. On a TV interview I heard him say that it was his favorite role.
