you'll find that you're not
the first person who was ever confused
and frightened and even sickened
by human behavior.
You're by no means
alone on 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 isn't education.
It's history.
It's poetry."
~J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye
