F. Scott Fitzgerald
All I kept thinking about, over and over, was 'You can't live forever you can't live forever.
F. Scott Fitzgerald

F. Scott Fitzgerald

F. Scott Fitzgerald
I want to do everything in the world with you.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
I fell in love with her courage, her sincerity, and her flaming self respect. And it's these things I'd believe in, even if the whole world indulged in wild suspicions that she wasn't all she should be. I love her and it is the beginning of everything.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
She wanted to exist only as a conscious flower, prolonging and preserving herself
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Isn't Hollywood a dump-in the human sense of the word. A hideous town, pointed up by the insulting gardens of its rich, full of the human spirit at a new low of debasement.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
There was not a moving up into vacated places there was simply an anachronistic staying on between a vanishing past and an incalculable future.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Her body calculated to a millimeter to suggest a bud yet guarantee a flower.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
The Montana sunset lay between the mountains like a giant bruise from which darkened arteries spread across a poisoned sky.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Most people think everybody feels about them much more violently than they actually do they think other people's opinions of them swing through great arcs of approval or disapproval.
