Hell, like love or other great intangibles, is a thing that cannot be fully grasped by mortal beings. It is a place that no one has ever experienced, so therefore, it is not possible to fully understand.

the difference between his favorite thing to do at home and his favorite thing to do at school, I used this as an opportunity to talk about his daily schedule.

up in some sort of mental hospital by the beginning of the book. Or chronologically rather, the end, it's all a flashback of sorts; it's Holden telling his story the way he sees it. But Holden's biggest issue is the idea of the word "phony,"—a word so vague and versatile he applies it to everything everything from words, such as "grand," to people, or even activities.
