Quotes of the Week - January 17, 2012:
"Our campaign is about more than replacing a President. It is about
saving the soul of America." -- Republican Mitt Romney, US presidential
hopeful, after winning New Hampshire primary.
"Remember to look up at the stars and not down to your feet. Try
to make sense of what you see and wonder about what makes the universe
exist. Be curious. And however difficult life may seem, there is always
something you can do and succeed at. It matters that you don't just
give up." -- Professor Stephen Hawking on his 70th birthday.
"American children had never seen a moving bosom before."
-- Actress Celia Imrie on the alarm caused by her low-cut dress in Nanny
McPhee.

"Would
you care for a cigarette?" I asked her.
She looked all around. "I don't believe this is a smoker,
Rudolf," she said. Rudolf. That killed me.
The Catcher in the Rye
Holden Caulfield in Chapter 8 |
In
my mind, I'm probably the biggest sex maniac you ever
saw.
The Catcher in the Rye
Holden Caulfield in Chapter 9 |
I
think if you don't really like a girl, you shouldn't horse around
with her at all, and if you do like her, then you're
supposed to like her face, and if you like her face, you ought
to be careful about doing crumby stuff to it, like squirting
water all over it. It's really too bad that so much crumby stuff
is a lot of fun sometimes.

Sex
is something I really don't understand too hot. You never know
where the hell you are. I keep making up these sex rules
for myself, and then I break them right away. Last year I made
a rule that I was going to quit horsing around with girls that,
deep down, gave me a pain in the ass. I broke it, though, the
same week I made it - the same night, as a matter of
fact.

I'm
a goddam minor.
The Catcher in the Rye
Holden Caulfield in Chapter 10 |
My
brother D.B.'s a writer and all, and my brother Allie, the one
that died, that I told you about, was a wizard. I'm the only
really dumb one.
The Catcher in the Rye
Holden Caulfield in Chapter 10 |
I
was half in love with her by the time we sat down. That's the
thing about girls. Every time they do something pretty, even
if they're not much to look at, or even if they're sort of stupid,
you fall half in love with them, and then you never know where
the hell you are. Girls. Jesus Christ. They can drive you crazy.
They really can.
The Catcher in the Rye
Holden Caulfield in Chapter 10 |
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.
The Catcher in the Rye
Holden Caulfield in Chapter 10 |
Then
she really started to cry, and the next thing I knew, I was
kissing her all over…
The Catcher in the Rye
Holden Caulfield in Chapter 11 |
She
was terrific to hold hands with. Most girls, if you hold hands
with them, their goddam hand dies on you, or else they
think they have to keep moving their hands all the time,
as if they were afraid they'd bore you or something. Jane was
different. We'd get into a goddam movie or something, and right
away we'd start holding hands, and we won't quite till the movie
was over. And without changing the position or making a deal
out of it. You never even worried, with Jane, whether your hand
was sweaty or not. All you knew was, you were happy. You really
were.
