More From J. D. Salinger

It wasn't really touching to be young; it was touching not to be young, because you had less of life left. touching to be thirty; more touching to be forty; tragic to be fifty; and heartbreaking to be sixty. as to seventy, as to eighty, one would feel as one did during the last dance of a ball, tired but fey in the paling dawn, desperately making the most of each bar of music before one went home to bed.

I have scars on my hands from touching certain people...certain heads, certain colours and textures of human hair leave permanent marks on me. other things, too. charlotte once ran away from me, outside the studio, and i grabbed her dress to stop her, to keep her near me. a yellow cotton dress i loved because it was too long for her. i still have a lemon-yellow mark on the palm of my right hand. oh god, if i'm anything by a clinical name, i'm a kind of paranoiac in reverse. i suspect people of plotting to make me happy.

To see the beauty of the world is to put your hands on lines that run uninterrupted through life and through death. touching them is an act of hope, for perhaps someone on the other side, if there is another side, is touching them, too.

Sickness is poor-spirited, and cannot serve anyone; it must husband its resources to live. but health or fullness answers its own ends, and has to spare, runs over, and inundates the neighborhoods and creeks of other men's necessities.
