Quote #10

"Dad, you keep Bandit. You need him more than I do." Dad hesitated until I said, "Please take him. I don't have any way to amuse him." (60.42)

This is really an awesome sacrifice on Leigh's part. He really misses Bandit but lets him go because it'll be better for Dad to have him. Leigh also knows it'll be better for Bandit to have the freedom of traveling with Dad rather than be stuck in his and Mom's little house.
