One of the great mind destroyers of college education is the belief that if it's very complex it's very profound.

Catcher in the Rye had a profound impact on me-the idea that we all have lots of dreams that are slowly being chipped away as we grow up.

Dreams are often most profound when they seem the most crazy.
