The Catcher In The Rye
H: You remind me of Holden.
Me: From “The Catcher in the Rye?” Oh come on! I’m not that cynical.
H: No, not like that. You want to catch people from falling, trying to save everyone from this world but you can’t. It’s not your decision. You can’t control it. These things just happen.
