Quotations From The Catcher And The Rye

"Pencey was full of crooks. Quite a few guys came from these families, but it was fool of crooks anyway. The more expensive school is, the more crooks it has - I'm not kidding."

"What really knocks me out is a book, when you're all done reading it, you wished the author that wrote it was a terrific friend of yours and you could call him up on the phone whenever you felt like it."
