Scott-there's nothing in the world I want but you-and your precious love. All the material things are nothing. I'd just hate to live in a sordid, colorless existence-because you'd soon love less-and less-and I'd do anything-anything-to keep your heart for my own-I don't want to live-I want to love first and live incidentally.
Zelda Fitzgerald
Pronunciation has made many an innocent word sound like a doctor's orders for a stomach pump.
Zelda Fitzgerald
We grew up founding our dreams on the infinite promise of American advertising. I still believe that one can learn to play the piano by mail and that mud will give you a perfect complexion.
Zelda Fitzgerald
Life has puffed and blown itself into a summer day, and clouds and spring billow over the heavens as if calendars were a listing of mathematical errors.
Zelda Fitzgerald
Death is the only real elegance.
Zelda Fitzgerald
memories should be sharp when one has nothing else to live for
Zelda Fitzgerald
Don't you think I was made for you? I feel like you had me ordered - and I was delivered to you - to be worn. I want you to wear me, like a watch-charm or a buttonhole bouquet.
Zelda Fitzgerald
We get something to do and as soon as we've got it, it gets us.
Zelda Fitzgerald
She felt the essence of herself pulled finer and smaller like those streams of spun glass that pull and stretch till there remains but a glimmering illusion. Neither falling nor breaking, the stream spins finer. She felt herself very small and ecstatic. Alabama was in love.
Zelda Fitzgerald
I am really only myself when I'm somebody else whom I have endowed with these wonderful qualities from my imagination.
Zelda Fitzgerald
A southern moon is a sodden moon, and sultry. When it swamps the fields and the rustling sandy roads and the sticky honeysuckle hedges in its sweet stagnation, your fight to hold on to reality is like a protestation against a first waft of ether.
Zelda Fitzgerald
Millie Beggs, by the time she was forty-five, had become an emotional anarchist.
Zelda Fitzgerald
One illusion is as good as another.
Zelda Fitzgerald
Other people's ideas of us are dependent largely on what they've hoped for.
Zelda Fitzgerald
I suppose all we can really share with people is a taste for the same kinds of weather.
Zelda Fitzgerald
It is the loose ends with which men hang themselves.
Zelda Fitzgerald
I play the radio and moon about...and dream of Utopias where its always July the 24th 1935, in the middle of summer forever.
Zelda Fitzgerald
Youth doesn't need friends -- it only needs crowds.
Zelda Fitzgerald
I love you, even if there isn’t any me, or any love, or even any life. I love you.
Zelda Fitzgerald
I wish I could write a beautiful book to break those hearts that are soon to cease to exist: a book of faith and small neat worlds and of people who live by the philosophies of popular songs.
