Franny and Zooey
...I'm sick of it. I'm sick of not having the courage to be an absolute nobody. I'm sick of myself and everybody else that wants to make some kind of a splash.

Franny and Zooey
As a matter of simple logic, there's no difference at all, that I can see, between the man who's greedy for material treasure -or even intellectual treasure- and the man who's greedy for spiritual treasure. As you say, treasure's treasure, God damn it, and it seems to me that ninety percent of all the world-hating saints in history were just as acquisitive and unattractive, basically, as the rest of us are.
