"Nothing is free in this world except the grace of God."
Mattie gets a lot of her courage from the way she knew her father to be, as well as her instilled family morals. However, another crucial source for her grit comes from the Bible. Although most of the highly-mentioned characters posses true grit, Mattie's does not resemble that of anyone else. Because the sources of courage differentiate, so do the outcomes. For LaBeouf, he holds the code of the Texas Rangers to heart, which then becomes his ultimate source for where his grit comes from. Even Lucky Ned Pepper has grit, but that of a different variety. However, in Charles Portis's book, True Grit, it is a recognizable quality even if it never looks quite the same in each person.
