Atticus shows this in the smallest of ways, such as with the family's ornery old neighbor, Mrs. Dubose, who makes a habit of taunting Jem and Scout when they walk by her house. Just hold your head high and be a gentleman, Atticus advises Jem.
As light continues to move though the atmosphere, yellow wavelengths are scattered leaving orange wavelengths. Further scattering of orange wavelengths leaves red as the predominate color of sunlight. Therefore, near sunrise and sunset, a cloud's color is what sunlight color it receives after Rayleigh scattering.
As light moves through the atmosphere, most of the longer wavelengths pass straight through. Little of the red, orange and yellow light is affected by the air. However, much of the shorter wavelength light is absorbed by the gas molecules. The absorbed blue light is then radiated in different directions. It gets scattered all around the sky. Whichever direction you look, some of this scattered blue light reaches you.
