I know I just put up this link but I don't have copy of Catcher in the Rye handy and all I have to thumb through are web pages.
These.. they just kill me.
"If a girl looks swell when she meets you, who gives a damn if she's late? Nobody."
"Who wants flowers when you're dead? Nobody."
"Don't ever tell anybody anything. If you do, you start missing everybody."
"People always think something's all true."
"I'm the most terrific liar you ever saw in your life. It's awful. If I'm on my way to the store to buy a magazine, even, and somebody asks me where I'm going, I'm liable to say I'm going to the opera. It's terrible. "
"There isn't any night club in the world you can sit in for a long time unless you can at least buy some liquor and get drunk. Or unless you're with some girl that really knocks you out."
"Anyway, I'm sort of glad they've got the atomic bomb invented. If there's ever another war, I'm going to sit right the hell on top of it. I'll volunteer for it, I swear to God I will."

All that I wanted to say at the age of 15 he said. And now he is dead. I wish you wouldn't acknowledge his death..
