Death is the only real elegance.
Zelda Fitzgerald
Image
Other people's ideas of us are dependent largely on what they've hoped for.
Zelda Fitzgerald
Image
without you, dearest dearest I couldn't see or hear or feel or think - or live - I love you so and I'm never in all our lives going to let us be apart another night.
Zelda Fitzgerald

Father said conflict develops the character
Zelda Fitzgerald
Image
Nothing annoys me more than having the most trivial action analyzed and explained.
Zelda Fitzgerald
Image
Why should all life be work, when we all can borrow. Let's think only of today, and not worry about tomorrow.
Zelda Fitzgerald
Image
memories should be sharp when one has nothing else to live for
Zelda Fitzgerald
