”If a girl looks swell when she meets you, who gives a damn if she’s late? Nobody.

Among other things, you’ll find that you’re not the first person who was ever confused and frightened and even sickened by human behavior. You’re by no means alone on that score, you’ll be excited and stimulated to know. Many, many men have been just as troubled morally and spiritually as you are right now. Happily, some of them kept record of their troubles. You’ll learn from them – if you want to. Just as someday, if you have something to offer, someone will learn something from you. It’s a beautiful reciprocal arrangement. And it isn’t education. It’s history. It’s poetry.

1. I am seriously in love with this.
2. Catcher in the Rye is my favorite book of all time. It speaks to me.
3. I dislike that this girl isn’t a fan of the book, but either way it’s a brilliant tattoo.
4. I think I might get it. Not in the place or that big, though.
What a bunch of phonies…
There is seriously a stack of copies of Catcher in the Rye in Urban Outfitters. So wrong for so many reasons.
