Morons!


“He hated it when you called him a moron. All morons hate it when you call them a moron.” (44)

  1. Background: Holden calls people morons because he feels like he doesn't fit in with them.
    Symbolism: When he refers to others as "Morons" he can in a way be calling himself one as well.
    Motif: Holden brings up how people are morons, and repeats it through out the story making it a motif.When people start to annoy or mess with Holden he often uses the word "Moron".
    Theme: This quote addresses the theme of how Holden's anger/frustration with people and him self shows how his behavior and immaturity gets him ticked off.
    Life Connection: In life many people point fingers and call names to others when really its themselves they are referring to.
