One of my favorite lines in American literature comes near the end of J. D. Salinger's Seymour: An Introduction. The narrator in the story, Buddy Glass, concludes his biographical sketch of his dead older brother, Seymour, by saying:
"Seymour once said that all we do our whole lives is go from one little piece of Holy Ground to the next. Is he never wrong?"

That's a wonderful quote, just finished reading that for the second time. I'm glad someone else shares the same view that that quote is, in fact terribly beautiful.
