Pencey was full of crooks. Quite a few guys came from these wealthy families, but it was full of crooks anyway. The more expensive a school is, the more crooks it has - I'm not kidding.
They (low-minded) ones should never be trusted.
Never trust people who promise to make you rich in a day. They are generally crazy swindlers
Sleazy people are always in this business. They run the business, pretty much. There are a lot of barracudas.
The world is made up, for the most part, of fools and knaves, both irreconcileable foes to truth.
I like playing weird, kind of shady people.
How wonderful to know someone who was bad and dishonorable and a cheat and a liar, when all the world was filled with people who would not lie to save their souls and who would rather starve than do a dishonorable deed!
I detest those who deceive me.
