Nice Fifth Avenue Parks

More From J. D. Salinger

I recycle and try to be nice to the earth. but flora and fauna have always interested me, and it is because of so many years of summer camp and growing up in dc with rock creek park fairly near me, or glover park; i lived in glover park for a while and that park was in my backyard.
Summer Growing Up Nice
So i submit to you that what we represent is a fifth column, a fifth column that represents the best aspirations that human community is capable of, a fifth column that is willing to look at the structure of the psyche in contrast to the mess of society, and willing to dream.
Dream Community Looks
I love new york. you can pop out of the underworld in central park, hail a taxi, head down fifth avenue with a giant hellhound loping behind you, and nobody even looks at you funny.
New York Central Park Giants
There were two recording studios in bellingham. one was really expensive, a "nice studio." we were at the point where we were young and irreverent. we would scoff at the idea of a nice studio. "why would you want to go to a nice studio? oh wow, they have really expensive gear. ooh, that's really fancy. well we've got an eight-track. we've got it going on here." now that we have the resources, we're like, "oh wow, a nice studio is pretty nice! they do have nice outboards here. it's actually a pretty good place." it's funny how much changes so quickly.
Nice Irreverent
Go to lord & taylor on fifth avenue, i think it's the eighth floor, and it's just a department called 'woman.' it's rather devastating. you've never seen such hideous clothes in your entire life. i mean, it's simply appalling. thank god there are no windows on that floor, because if i were a size 18, i'd throw myself right out the window [after seeing those clothes]. it's insulting what these designers do to these women.
Mean Thinking Clothes
My father had taught me to be nice first, because you can always be mean later, but once you've been mean to someone, they won't believe the nice anymore. so be nice, be nice, until it's time to stop being nice, then destroy them.
Life Father Nice
