Canon t3i 18-55m or 18-135mm?

So I'm planning on getting this camera soon. This will be my first DSLR camera. I was initially going to buy the Nikon D3200 just because its mainly for beginners, and I was going to buy another camera once I feel I mastered the D3200. But I feel like I can learn from the Canon t3i. This way, I can keep the T3i longer and not buy a new one. (sorry if its confusing)

I'm not sure which camera to get? On amazon, they give me two options. I can get the Body and a 18-55mm lens for $599 or the body and 18-135mm lens for $799. What's the difference? Is it that I get better quality on the 18-135mm? Or what?

Buy refurbished but only from the manufactures website. Then with the money you saved buy a good quality lens. The 18-55 is best for landscape photography. 55-200 is best for people and bird photography.
