F. Scott Fitzgerald
What'll we do with ourselves this afternoon,' cried Daisy, 'and the day after that, and the next thirty years?' 'Don't be morbid,' Jordan said. 'Life starts all over again when it gets crisp in the fall.' 'But it's so hot,' insisted Daisy, on the verge of tears, 'And everything's so confused. Let's all go to town!
F. Scott Fitzgerald
that voice was a deathless song.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
...I think he revalued everything in his house according to the measure of response it drew from her well-loved eyes.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Travel, which had once charmed him, seemed, at length, unendurable, a business of color without substance, a phantom chase after his own dream's shadow.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
When the first-rate author wants an exquisite heroine or a lovely morning, he finds that all the superlatives have been worn shoddy by his inferiors. It should be a rule that bad writers must start with plain heroines and ordinary mornings, and, if they are able, work up to something better.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
...for a moment people set down their glasses in county clubs and speak-easies and thought of their old best dreams.
F. Scott Fitzgerald

F. Scott Fitzgerald
He snatched out his hand desperately as if to snatch only a wisp of air, to save a fragment of the spot that she had made lovely for him. But it was all going by too fast now for his burred eyes and he knew that he had lost that part of it, the freshest and the best, forever.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
It appears that every man's insomnia is as different from his neighbours as are their daytime hopes and aspirations.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
I am too much a moralist at heart, and really want to preach at people in some acceptable form, rather than entertain them.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
The mouth was wide open and ripped at the corners, as though she had choked a little in giving up the tremendous vitality she had stored so long.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
You've got an awfully kissable mouth.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Well, let it pass, he thought April is over, April is over. There are all kinds of love in the world, but never the same love twice. --The Sensible Thing
F. Scott Fitzgerald
The helpless ecstasy of loosing himself in her charm was a powerful opiate rather than a tonic.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Once in a while I go off on a spree and make a fool of myself, but I always come back, and in my heart I love her all the time. - The Great Gatsby.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
His dream must have seemed so close that he could hardly fail to grasp it. He did not know that it was already behind him.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
There are all kinds of love in this world but never the same love twice.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
I was too absorbed to be responsive
F. Scott Fitzgerald
At any rate, let us love for a while, for a year or so, you and me. That's a form of divine drunkenness that we can all try. There are only diamonds in the whole world, diamonds and perhaps the shabby gift of disillusion.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
