I kept picturing all these little kids in this big field of rye... If they're running and they don't look where they're going, I have to come out from somewhere and catch them.
J. D. SalingerYou don't know how to talk to people you don't like. Don't love, really. You can't live in the world with such strong likes and dislikes.
J. D. SalingerKeep me up till five because all your stars are out, and for no other reasonโฆOh dare to do it Buddy! Trust your heart. Youโre a deserving craftsman. It would never betray you. Good night. Iโm feeling very much over-excited now, and a little dramatic, but I think Iโd give almost anything on earth to see you writing a something, an anything, a poem, a tree, that was really and truly after your own heart.
