ask her

if she still keeps all of her kings in the back row. i used to play checkers with her all the time...she wouldn't move any of her kings. what she'd do, when she'd get a king, she wouldn't move it. she'd just leave it in the back row. she'd get them all lined up in the back row. then she'd never use them. she just liked the way they looked when they were all in the back row..ask her if she still keeps all her kings in the back row. -catcher in the rye

"colleges being nothing but grooming schools for the middleclass non-identity which usually finds its perfect expression on the outskirts of the campus in rows of well-to-do houses with lawns and television sets is each living room with everybody looking at the same thing and thinking the same thing at the same time while the Japhies of the world go prowling in the wilderness to hear the voice crying in the wilderness, to find the ecstasy of the stars, to find the dark mysterious secret of the origin of faceless wonderless crapulous civilization." -the dharma bums

i have all of these books if anyone wants to borrow one!

love.
