The Musuem of Natural History is a pretty big symbol. Holden says, "Nobody'd move...nobody'd be different. The only thing that would be different would be you." He later says that you wouldn't necessarily be older but you might have a new partner or had on a new jacket or saw or heard something different before or after you went to the musuem but really you were older every time you went. In a way it show how times have changed but the museum itself has not changed. Holden is a little like the musuem how he isn't changing much and having a hard time finding his place in life. While everyone around him is finding their place and becoming adults he is staying the same and can not find his way. But he has changed since he was a little kid. He knows more. He had experienced more. I can't explain this symbol very well but it is really important.
