Holden, while talking to Spencer relates that Dr. Thurmer tried to tell Holden life is a game to be played by rules on page 8 of TCIT. Spencer attempts to reinforce Thurmer but Holden is right when he says: "If you get on the side where all the hot-shots are, then it's game alright--I'll admit that. But if you get on the other side, where there aren't any hot shots, then what's the game about it?" People like to say life is a game when their advantages make it fun to play. For those of us who struggle, it's not a game, it's a struggle. will
Thanks,Will, for ending that argument about 'life is a game' (and 'just do it') by quoting Salinger himself. Back to the source.
