F. Scott Fitzgerald

Actually that’s my secret — I can’t even talk about you to anybody because I don’t want any more people to know how wonderful you are.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
The best of America drifts to Paris. The American in Paris is the best American.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
I hope something happens. I'm restless as the devil and have a horror of getting fat or falling in love and growing domestic.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
that voice was a deathless song.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
No one should live beyond 30.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
I talk with the authority of failure - Ernest with the authority of success. We could never sit across the same table again.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
So they were desperately in love and being desperately in love involves a desperate existence.
