Quote:
"'Would you care for a cigarette?' I asked her. She looked all around. 'I don't believe this is a smoker, Rudolf,' she said."

Holden smokes where ever he wants to. He really doesn't seem to care if he is supposed to or not. He'll smoke in his dorm room or in a nonsmoking train car. His parents didn't teach him very good edicate manners for eating or he just doesn't care that he is breaking a rule. He does it just because he feels like it, but does he think of how the other passangers may not like having to smell cigarette smoke on the train.
