THE ADVENTURES OF HUCKLEBERRY FINN - QUOTESCHAPTER ONE - EIGHT
Huckleberry Finn
• I don’t take no stock in dead people.
• By-and-by they fetched the niggers in and had prayers.
• But as for me I think di erent, It has all the marks of a Sunday school.
• It was white; not like another man’s white […] a white to make a body’s esh crawl.
• I didn’t want to go back to the widow’s any more and be so cramped up a sivilized, as they
called it.
• Jackson’s Island is good enough for me.
• People would call me a low down Abolitionist.
Tom Sawyer
• ‘Why blame it all, we’ve got to do it. Don’t I tell you it’s in the books?’
Pap
• ‘You’ve put on considerable many frills since I been away’
• ‘Thinks I, what is the country-a-coming to? […] when they told me there was a State in this
country where they’d let that nigger vote, I dragged out. I says I’ll never vote agin.’
Jim
• ‘Yes - en I’s rich now, come to look at it. I owns mysef, en I’s with eight hund’d dollars.’
CHAPTER NINE - SIXTEEN
• ‘What, you don’t mean the Walter Scott?’
Huckleberry Finn
• He said he druther see the new moon over his left shoulder as much as a thousand times than
take up a snake skin in his hand.
• ‘Git up and hump yourself, Jim! There ain’t a minute to lose. They’re after us!
• Now was the rst time that I begun to worry about the men - I reckon I hadn’t had time to
before. I begun to think how dreadful it was even for murderers, to be in such a x.
• Well he was right, he was most always right; he had an uncommon level head, for a nigger.
• It was fteen minutes before I would work myself up to go and humble myself to a nigger - but I
done it and I warn’t ever sorry for it afterwards, neither.
