F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
People living alone get used to loneliness.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
This is the beauty I want. Beauty has got to be astonishing, astounding-- it's got to burst in on you like a dream, like the exquisite eyes of a girl.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
I felt a haunting loneliness sometimes, and felt it in others--young clerks in the dusk, wasting the most poignant moments of night and life.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
The bar is in full swing, and floating rounds of cocktails permeate the garden outside, until the air is alivewith chatter and laughter, and casual innuendo and introductions forgotten on the spot, and enthusiastic meetings between women who never knew each other’s names.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
When I'm with you, I don't breathe quite right.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
At fifteen you had the radiance of early morning, at twenty you will begin to have the melancholy brilliance of the moon.
F. Scott Fitzgerald

Of all natural forces, vitality is the incommunicable one. . . . Vitality never takes. You have it or you haven't it, like health or brown eyes or a baritone voice.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image

Daisy began to sing with the music in a husky, rhythmic whisper, bringing out a meaning in each word that it had never had before and would never have again. When the melody rose, her voice broke up sweetly, following it, in a way contralto voices have, and each change tipped out a little of her warm human magic upon the air.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
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
Image
The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in mind at the same time and still retain the ability to function.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
He knew that when he kissed this girl, and forever wed his unutterable visions to her perishable breath, his mind would never romp again like the mind of God.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
Learn young about hard work and manners - and you'll be through the whole dirty mess and nicely dead again before you know it.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
All good writing is swimming under water and holding your breath.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
This is what I think now: that the natural state of the sentient adult is a qualified unhappiness.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
I’ve heard it said that Daisy’s murmur was only to make people lean toward her an irrelevant criticism that made it no less charming.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
There's no substitute for will. Sometimes you have to fake will when you don't feel it at all.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
For a transitory enchanted moment man must have held his breath in the presence of this continent, compelled into an aesthetic contemplation he neither understood nor desired, face to face for the last time in history with something commensurate to his capacity for wonder.
F. Scott Fitzgerald

Dishonesty in a woman is a thing you never blame deeply.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
