When I stepped out into the bright sunlight from the darkness of the movie house, I had only two things on my mind: Paul Newman and a ride home.
Ponyboy Curtis
"Since mom and dad were killed in an auto wreck, the three of us get to stay together only as long as we behave" (3)
"Nobody in our gang digs movies and books the way I do" (2)
"I'm supposed to be smart; I make good grades and i have a high IQ and everything but i don't use my head." (4)
"Soda and i stay out of trouble as much as we can, and we're careful not to get caught when we can't." (3)
"Greasers usually stick together, but when we do fight among ourselves, it's a fair fight between two." (29)
"Our hair labeled us greasers,too- it was our trademark." (71)
"I like my books and clouds and sunsets." (76)
"Darry and Sodapop were my brothers and i loved both of them, even if darry did scare me; but not even soda could take mom and dad's place." (88)
"I don't want to e a hood, but even if i don't steal things and mug people and get boozed up, I'm marked lousy." (132)
"I'll fight anyone anytime, but I don't like to." (133)
Ponyboy Curtis is a hero because he is courageous and noble.
