Take a Walk in Someone Else’s Shoes

Forrest Gump Video Clip “Momma always says there's an awful lot you could tell about a person by their shoes.”

“-until you climb into his skin and walk around in it.” “You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view-” “Sir?” “-until you climb into his skin and walk around in it.” (Lee, 30)

“As Atticus had once advised me to do, I tried to climb into Jem’s skin and walk around in it.” (Lee, 57)

“Atticus was right. One time he said you never really know a man until you stand in his shoes and walk around in them.” (Lee, 279)
