"When he was nearly thirteen, my brother Jem got his arm badly broken at the elbow."
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair
"I became what I am today at the age of twelve, on a frigid overcast day in the winter of 1975."
"My mother drove me to the airport with the windows rolled down."
