Yesterday, at the ripe old age of 91, J.D. Salinger the famed and reclusive author of Catcher in the Rye passed away. In his honor, I'd like to share a wonderful quote from one of his lesser known works, Franny and Zoe:
"Seymour once said to me – in a crosstown bus, of all places – that all legitimate religious study must lead to unlearning the differences, the illusory differences, between boys and girls, animals and stones, day and night, heat and cold."
