More quotes by Zelda Fitzgerald
And, Joey, if you ever want to know about the japonicas and the daisy fields it will be alright that you have forgotten because I will be able to tell you about how it felt to be feeling that way you cannot quite remember – that will be for the time when something happens years from now that reminds you of now.
Zelda Fitzgerald

Zelda Fitzgerald
One illusion is as good as another.
Zelda Fitzgerald
It's terrible to allow conventional habits to gain a hold on a whole household to eat, sleep and live by clock ticks.

Zelda Fitzgerald
Something in me vibrates to a dusky, dreamy smell of dying moons and shadows.
Zelda Fitzgerald

Zelda Fitzgerald
Nobody has ever measured, not even poets, how much the heart can hold.
Zelda Fitzgerald
Death is the only real elegance.
Zelda Fitzgerald
I don’t suppose I really know you very well - but I know you smell like the delicious damp grass that grows near old walls and that your hands are beautiful opening out of your sleeves and that the back of your head is a mossy sheltered cave when there is trouble in the wind and that my cheek just fits the depression in your shoulder.
Zelda Fitzgerald
I can't read or sleep. Without hope or youth or money I sit constantly wishing I were dead.
Zelda Fitzgerald
Look closer and you'll see something extraordinary, mystifying, something real and true. We have never been what we seemed.
Zelda Fitzgerald
We grew up founding our dreams on the infinite promise of American advertising.
Zelda Fitzgerald
By the time a person has achieved years adequate for choosing a direction, the die is cast and the moment has long since passed which determined the future.
Zelda Fitzgerald
It is the loose ends with which men hang themselves.
Zelda Fitzgerald
