" Among other things , you'll find that you're not the first person who was ever confused and frightened and even sickened by human behaviour . You're by no means alone by that score , you'll be excited and stimulated to know . Many , many men have been just as troubled morally and spiritually as you are right now . Happily , some of them kept records of their troubles . You'll learn from them - if you want to . Just as someday , if you have something to offer , someone will learn something from you . It's a beautiful reciprocal arrangement . And it isnt education . Its history . Its poetry . "
- The Catcher In The Rye , JD Salinger
