Quotes 

  • Joanna : The job of an agent is to open up opportunities for their clients, but, when it came to Salinger, the logic was reversed. We had to shield him from the outside world, bolstering his reputation as a complicated recluse.

  • Joanna : There's just other things I want to do. And I'm afraid that if I don't do them now, I never will.

  • [first lines] 

    Joanna : [narrating]  I grew up in a quiet suburban town just north of New York. On special occasions , my dad would take me into the city, and we would go and get dessert at the Waldorf or the Plaza. I loved watching the people around us. They seemed to have interesting lives. I wanted to be one of them. I wanted to write novels and speak five languages and travel. I didn't want to be ordinary. I wanted to be extraordinary.

  • Margaret : Jerry likes you. I am reluctant to alter his routine.

    Joanna : I don't wanna be a routine.

  • Joanna : Stop calling me, Booba, okay?

  • Joanna : My condolences, Margaret.

    Margaret : I'll pull my socks up.

  • Joanna : Salinger's nothing like I thought, nothing. He's brutal, brutal and funny. And I love it. I love Franny the most. There's that moment when the guy in Princeton is waiting for Franny at the train station, and he has the letter in his pocket, Franny's letter. And he's read it a thousand times, he knows it by heart. But when she gets off the train and asks, "Did you get my letter?" He says, "Which letter?"

  • Joanna : Besides fighting materialism and raising class awareness, Don was into boxing.

  • Joanna : We know you can type, hooray, but have you ever used a dictaphone? At ease. It can be tricky at first, but I'm sure you'll get the hang of it.

  • Joanna : So there are no computers?

    Margaret : We choose not to use computers. I've seen them in action. They just make more work for everyone, wasting time.

  • Joanna : All right, as you can see, we have a relaxed, cordial environment. We ask that you don't wear dungarees, sneakers, T-shirts, sweatshirts, especially the kind with hoods. No open-toed shoes, but it's perfectly fine to wear trousers if you're a woman, and no need to wear stockings in the summer. Bare legs are perfectly fine.

  • Joanna : I didn't want to be entertained. I wanted to be provoked.

  • Mark : Okay, look, this girl is ready to go to bed with him.

    Joanna : He's 70 something.

    Mark : Don't be naive. Good literature is a powerful aphrodisiac.

  • Joanna : As you know, I believe that computers make work rather than alleviate it. But I agreed to install one in the office on a trial basis because...

    Max : It came in an elegant black.

    Joanna : Because, Hugh discovered that people, I don't know who these people are or why they don't have more important things to do with their lives, but people have been publishing whole Salinger stories on their personal e-webs.

    Hugh : Web blogs.

    Joanna : Web blogs, ridiculous. This is blatant copyright infringement. And we're going to have to scour the worldwide web to put an end to it. And that is *all* the computer is to be used for.

    Daniel : Sorry to interrupt. Just passing through. Don't mean to cause a fuss.

    Joanna : We can turn it off now.

    Max : Uh, it's already off.

    Joanna : Okay, good. And then maybe the little coat that goes over it, I've seen it in pictures. Thank you, Max.

  • Joanna : So Salinger doesn't get any of his mail?

    Hugh : Not one. You shred them in the shredder.

    Margaret : You should always read them.

    Hugh : Yes, indeed.

    Margaret : Just in case.

    Hugh : Just in case.

    Joanna : In case of what?

    Margaret : We've been extra careful since the Mark David Chapman thing.

    Hugh : John Lennon's assassin. When the police arrived at the Dakota, they found Chapman calmly sitting on the sidewalk reading, "Catcher In The Rye".

  • Joanna : Did you talk to the landlady about the heating?

    Mark : [in a Polish accent]  Why do you need a heater? Your love should keep you warm.

  • Joanna : I grew up reading The New Yorker, following my father's ritual. He would start with the movie reviews and then turn to the Talk of the Town, and then the features. In college, everyone was into The New Yorker.

  • Joanna : How did you end up working for Playboy?

    Margaret : Enough chit chat, Joanna. Back to work.

  • Joanna : You'll soon find out that young women are often held to double standards when it comes to success. You need to prove to yourself and to your peers that you do not need special treatment.

  • Joanna : if you want to uphold the spirit of Holden, try not to care too much about how people judge you. This might mean being more humble, but it's the only way.

  • Jenny : Cleveland is a cool city. We're already looking for a place in Shaker Heights.

    Joanna : Wow. Suburbs.

  • Joanna : Have you been writing lately?

    Jenny : I don't really write anymore. I know we used to say that we wanted to become writers but that was more your thing. I kind of grew out of it.

    Joanna : You make it sound like a teenage phase.

    Jenny : Isn't that what it was?

  • Hugh : Do you have any idea how many times when I was answering Salinger's letters I wanted to write my own one back?

    Joanna : Really?

    Hugh : Of course. "Dear Sir, obsess over another writer. I hear Kurt Vonnegut answers his own fan mail."

  • Joanna : You will not regret this.

    Margaret : We'll see about that.

  • Joanna : I don't hate it - or maybe I do hate it and that's why it's good.

  • Joanna : Maybe you'll meet some hot blonde that wants you to rip her panties off and fuck her up the ass and write an unreadable story about her.

    Don : What? Where's this coming from? Where is the sweet naive girl I met last Christmas?

  • Joanna : You're right. Can't go around revealing your goddamn emotions to the world. But, if you can't reveal your emotions to the world, then what are you supposed to do with them? How do you go on?

  • Joanna : You think women don't look at other men? We do. We even look at other women. We just don't drool while we do it.
