MY FAVOURITE QUOTES FROM “BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY’S” BY TRUMAN CAPOTE

“The answer is good things only happen to you if you’re good. Good? Honest is more what I mean… Be anything but a coward, a pretender, an emotional crook, a whore: I’d rather have cancer than a dishonest heart.”

“My yardstick is how somebody treats me.”

“Anyone who ever gave you confidence, you owe them a lot”

“Just wanna go a-travellin’ through the pastures of the sky”

“I loved her enough to forget myself”

And here’s also some beautiful new words that I learned:

a coward [ˈkaʊɚd] -noun. a person who lacks courage in facing danger, difficulty, opposition, pain, etc.; a timid or easily intimidated person.

a toothpick [ˈtuθpɪk]-noun.a short pointed piece of wood or plastic used for removing bits of food lodged between the teeth.

condemn-[kənˈdɛmn] verb.express complete disapproval of; censure.
