“I had known Finny in an impersonal dormitory, a gym, a playing field. In the room we shared at Devon, many strangers had lived before us, and many would afterward. It was there that I had done it, but it was here that I would have to tell it. I felt like a wild man who had stumbled in from the jungle to tear the place apart.” (Chapter 5, p. 69)

“Finny got away with everything because of the extraordinary kind of person he was. It was quite a compliment to me, as a matter of fact, to have such a person chose me for his best friend…
I should’ve told him then that he was my best friend. I started to; I nearly did. But something held me back. Perhaps I was stopped at that level of feeling, deeper than thought, which contains the truth.” (p. 29; p. 48)

“We were in shaky transit from the groveling status of Lower Middlers to the near-respectability of Upper Middlers. The class above, seniors, draft-bait, rushed ahead of us toward the war. They were caught up in accelerated courses, first-aid programs, and a physical hardening regimen which included jumping from this tree. We were reading Virgil and playing tag in the river. Until Finny thought of the tree.”
