Additional quotes by J. D. Salinger

People always clap for the wrong reasons.

Just because I'm so horribly conditioned to accept everybody else's values, and just because I like applause and people to rave about me, doesn't make it right. I'm ashamed of it. I'm sick of it. I'm sick of not having the courage to be an absolute nobody.

Life is a gift horse in my opinion.
