Quote

For what it's worth, it's never too late to be whoever you want to be. I hope you live a life you're proud of and if you find that you're not, I hope you have the strength to start over.

More quotes by F. Scott Fitzgerald

Image
She was incurably dishonest.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
We can't possibly have a summer love. So many people have tried that the name's become proverbial. Summer is only the unfulfilled promise of spring, a charlatan in place of the warm balmy nights I dream of in April. It's a sad season of life without growth...It has no day.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
Kiss me now, love me now.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
The truth was that Jay Gatsby, of West Egg, Long Island, sprang from his Platonic conception of himself. He was a son of God—a phrase which, if it means anything, means just that—and he must be about His Father’s Business, the service of a vast, vulgar and meretricious beauty.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
It occurred to me that there was no difference between men, in intelligence or race, so profound as the difference between the sick and the well.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
Every one suspects himself of at least one of the cardinal virtues.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
He lifted his arms to the crystaline, radiant sky. I know myself, he cried, but that is all.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
He was handsome then if never before, bound for one of those immortal moments which come so radiantly that their remembered light is enough to see by for years.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
Human sympathy has its limits, and we were contented to let all their tragic arguments fade with the city lights behind.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
To write it, it took three months to conceive it three minutes to collect the data in it all my life.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
Amory thought how it was only the past that seemed strange and unbelievable.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
A stirring warmth flowed from her, as if her heart was trying to come out to you concealed in one of those breathless, thrilling words.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
It’s just that I feel so sad these wonderful nights. I sort of feel they’re never coming again, and I’m not really getting all I could out of them.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
The hangover became a part of the day as well allowed-for as the Spanish siesta.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
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
Image
God knows what you've been doing, everything you've been doing. You may fool me, but you can't fool God!
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
It was strange to have no self-to be like a little boy left alone in a big house, who knew that now he could do anything he wanted to do, but found that there was nothing that he wanted to do.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
And so with the sunshine and the great bursts of leaves growing on the trees, just as things grow in fast movies, I had that familiar conviction that life was beginning over again with the summer.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
Every act of life, from the morning toothbrush to the friend at dinner, became an effort. I hated the night when I couldn't sleep and I hated the day because it went toward night.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
The kiss originated when the first male reptile licked the first female reptile, implying in a subtle way that she was as succulent as the small reptile he had for dinner the night before.
