The Catcher in the Rye

"I'm quite the sex maniac in my own way."

"That's the trouble with me. I can't get interested in things. That's really the trouble."

"I'm in the same boat I've always been in."

"It really is. It kills me."

"Pencey Prep. That killed me."

"I'm standing on the edge of some crazy cliff."

"Almost everything I have tells something about my lousy childhood."

"I can't explain. It's one of those things I don't like to talk about very much."

"I'm the most terrific listener you ever saw in your life. It really is the truth."

"You don't like anything that's happening."

"It really does. It kills me."

"I hate the movies like poison, but I get to looking at them anyway."

"I'm a very sexy bastard, I really am."

"Sex is something I really don't understand very well."

"I'd just be the catcher in the rye and all."

"The thing is, it's really hard to get rid of a girl. Girls are very hard to get rid of."

"I'm quite illiterate, but I read a lot."

"It's funny. It's very funny. It kills me."

"I really do. That's the thing about me. I'm the most terrific liar you ever saw in your life."

"I don't exactly know what I mean by that, but I mean it."

"I'm always saying things I shouldn't say."

"The thing is, I'm afraid I'm a very sexy devil."

"It kills me, it really does, when people don't know how to act."

"Girls are terrific, but you have to be careful with them."

"The thing is, it's really very hard to leave your room unless you're in some kind of good mood."

"I'm the most terrific listener you ever saw."

"I really am. I'm quite spiritual, even though I'm an atheist."

"It really does kill me."

"That's the thing I like least about going anywhere new. You don't know anybody."

"I have a feeling that if you leave me here, I'll die."
