The Catcher in the Rye Quotes

Game, my ass. Some game. If you get on the side where all the hot-shots are, then it's a game, all right - I'll admit that. But if you get on the other side, where there aren't any hot-shots, then what's a game about it? Nothing. No game. - J.D. Salinger (The Catcher in the Rye Quotes)
