For my outside reading post I read the novel Crispin by Avi. In this book so far, there have been a couple of quotes that I thought had a really good lesson to them. The first quote is when Crispin is narrating and says, "I ran as far as strength and breath allowed, halting only when my legs gave out. Then I threw myself upon the ground, gasping for breath"(Avi 9). Although this quote was stated when Crispin was trying to escape from John Aycliffe the meaning is still that you should always try until you can't do any more. The other quote that had a high amount of significance was when Crispin was talking to a priest and said, "Father, that's impossible for me. I am what I am (Avi 32). This quote is important because it talks about how he knows that he is the way he is and that he should be himself.
