Mine is the conversation he has on the train with the mother of his school-mate. I love it when he tells her he has a brain tumor, always gives me a laugh. I love how the whole time he talks about how he likes the guy's mom, how she is nice and all, and then calls her son a son of a ***** in the end.

I actually used this section for an oral interpretation reading, and it went pretty well.

My favorite scene is when Holden is depicted in the snow watching the football game from a distance. Really summed up his character for me.

That's funny on so many levels:p.

Mine is a line really: "I thought what I'd do was, I'd pretend I was one of those deaf mutes".

"If you really want to hear about it," It goes downhill from there.

I don't know about favourite part, I just like his cynicism I suppose.
