When I was reading the chapters 16-18 i came across a part when he was waiting for Sally to show up for their date then right when she gets there he thinks she is so beautiful. while he is still in awe of her beauty he tell her that "he loves her". Then right after he said this he told us that he was crazy and he knew it. Right when he said that it hit me that he knew that he wasnt like everyone else and that really didnt stop him. This might be the reason why he thinks everyone is phony and he hates most people that he meets. This matters because for the entire time that i have been reading this book i have been wondering if there is something wrong with Holden mentally but now that i have read this i know that he thinks he is crazy and doesnt care.
