F. Scott Fitzgerald
I couldn't forgive him or like him, but I saw that what he had done was, to him, entirely justified.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
He snatched the book from me and replaced it hastily on its shelf, muttering that if one brick was removed the whole library was liable to collapse.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Character is plot, plot is character.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
You've got an awfully kissable mouth.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Dear, don't think of getting out of bed yet. I've always suspected that early rising in early life makes one nervous.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
