This is for all J.D Salinger fans, addicts, devotees et al.
For the people whose lives were changed by Holden.

For true-life recluses.
No haters, naysayers,
and especially no goddamn phonies.

“ …all legitimate religious study must lead to unlearning the differences, the illusory difference, between boys and girls, animals and stones, day and night, heat and cold.

“ Listen, I don’t care what you say about my race, creed, or religion, Fatty, but don’t tell me I’m not sensitive to beauty. That’s my Achilles’ heel, and don’t you forget it. To me, everything is beautiful. Show me a pink sunset and I’m limp, by God.

“ As you must know in your hearts and bowels, we miss you all like sheer hell. Unfortunately, I am far from above hoping the case is vice versa. This is a matter of quite a little humorous despair to me, though not so humorous. It is entirely disgusting to be forever achieving little actions of the heart or body and then taking recourse to reaction. I am utterly convinced that if A’s hat blows off while he is sauntering down the street, it is the charming duty of B to pick it up and hand it to A without examining A’s face or combing it for gratitude! My God, let me achieve missing my beloved family without yearning that they miss me in return!

As one limping man to another, old Zooey, let’s be courteous and kind to each other.

I can’t even blame boredom for this. Just my own lameness. Yaaaayyyyy
