PUDD FILE: Capturing the everyday- featuring extracts from The Catcher in the Rye

An animated narrative : Capturing the everyday........  literary extracts of ~J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye (1945),  with contemporary IMAGERY (2000-present) via http://www.paulclemence.com


"People never notice anything."   (Ch.2)



"Take most people, they're crazy about cars.  They worry if they get a little scratch on them, and they're always talking about how many miles they get to a gallon, and if they get a brand-new car already they start thinking about trading it in for one that's even newer.  I don't even like old cars.  I mean they don't even interest me.  I'd rather have a goddam horse.  A horse is at least human, for God's sake." (Ch.17)

"People always think something's all true" (Ch.2.)


"I was half in love with her by the time we sat down.  That's the thing about girls.  Every time they do something pretty, even if they're not much to look at, or even if they're sort of stupid, you fall half in love with them, and then you never know where the hell you are" (Ch.10)






"... 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." (Ch.24)
