«'Anyway, I keep picturing all these little kids playing some game in this big field of rye and all. Thousands of little kids, and nobody's around - nobody big, I mean - except me. And I'm standing on the edge of some crazy cliff.

That's all I'd do all day. I'd just be the catcher in the rye and all.»

It's a beautiful reciprocal arrangement. And it isn't education. It's history. It's poetry.»

«What I was really hanging around for, I was trying to feel some kind of a good-by. I mean I've left schools and places I didn't even know I was leaving them. I hate that. I don't care if it's a sad good-by, or a bad good-by, but when I leave a place I like to know I'm leaving it. If you don't, you feel even worse.»
«How do you know your going to do something, untill you do it?»
«Why the hell don'tcha, instead of keep saying it?»
«I'm sick of not having the courage to be an absolute nobody.»
«'I'm just going through a phase right now. Everybody goes through phases and all, don't they?»
