Girls. You never know what they're going to think.
J. D. Salinger
The Catcher in the Rye, spoken by Holden Caulfield

If a girl looks swell when she meets you, who gives a damn if she's late? Nobody.
J. D. Salinger
The Catcher in the Rye, spoken by Holden Caulfield

Take most people, they're crazy about cars. They worry if they get a little scratch on them, and they're always talking about how many miles they get to a gallon…I don't even like old cars. I mean they don't even interest me. I'd rather have a goddam horse. A horse is at least human, for God's sake.
J. D. Salinger
The Catcher in the Rye, spoken by Holden Caulfield

Boy, when you're dead, they really fix you up. I hope to hell when I do die somebody has sense enough to just dump me in the river or something. Anything except sticking me in a goddam cemetery. People coming and putting a bunch of flowers on your stomach on Sunday, and all that crap. Who wants flowers when you're dead? Nobody.
J. D. Salinger
The Catcher in the Rye, spoken by Holden Caulfield

I keep picturing all these little kids playing some game in this big field of rye and all… I'm standing on the edge of some crazy cliff. What I have to do, I have to catch everybody if they start to go over the cliff - I mean if they're running and they don't look where they're going I have to come out from somewhere and catch them. That's all I do all day. I'd just be the catcher in the rye.
J. D. Salinger
The Catcher in the Rye, spoken by Holden Caulfield

J. D. Salinger
The Catcher in the Rye, spoken by Holden Caulfield

She is the queen of the phonies.
J. D. Salinger
The Catcher in the Rye, spoken by Holden Caulfield

Don't ever tell anybody anything. If you do, you start missing everybody.
J. D. Salinger
The Catcher in the Rye, last, lines, spoken by Holden Caulfield

I am a kind of paranoiac in reverse. I suspect people of plotting to make me happy. J. D. Salinger
