the last book I ever re-read


"He hated it when you called him a moron. All morons hate it when you call them a moron."

"She didn't look like any dope to me. She looked like she might have a pretty damn good idea what a bastard she was the mother of. But you can't always tell - with somebody's mother, I mean. Mothers are all slightly insane."

"If I were a piano player, I'd play it in the goddam closet."

"If a girl looks swell when she meets you, who gives a damn if she's late? Nobody."

"The whole thing was sort of funny, in a way, if you thought about it, and all of a sudden I did something I shouldn't have. I laughed. And I have one of these very loud, stupid laughs. I mean, if I ever sat behind myself in a movie or something, I'd probably lean over and tell myself to please shut up."

"You should've seen this one old guy that was about fifty."

"Finally, what he did, instead of taking back what he said, he jumped out the window."
