"Given a world that depresses far more than it cheers, given the competitiveness, the phoniness, the sheer inhumanity of man to man, what could make for a more appealing life's work than to be a "catcher in the rye".
-- Sanford Pinkser, The Catcher in the Rye: Innocence Under Pressure (p76).

"... The world is full of poverty and corruption and war and Nazis and tsunamis. ... The net result, the final count is, you lose -- you don't beat the house ..." --Woody Allen


"There can be no transforming of darkness into light and of apathy into movement without emotion." --Carl Jung
