J.D. Salinger Remembered

“He loved children with no holds barred, but never with the sentimental fakery of admiring their ‘purity.’ After watching his son, Matthew, playing one day, he said, ‘If your child likes-loves-you, the very love he bears you tears your heart out about once a day or once every other day.’”
