The Great Gatsby
F. Scott FitzgeraldQuotes
"Whenever you want to criticize anyone," he told me," just remember that all the people in this world haven't had the advantages that you have had"
Toy çağımda bir öğüt vermişti babam, hâlâ küpedir kulağıma. 'Ne zaman' demişti, birini eleştirecek, yargılayacak olsan, hatırdan çıkarma, herkes senin imkanlarında gelmemiştir dünyaya!
He did not say anything more, but l understood that he meant something more than that
"...He knew that when he kissed this girl, and forever wed his unutterable visions to her perishable breath, his mind would never romp again like the mind of God. So, he waited, listening for a moment longer to the tuning-fork that had been struck upon a star. Then he kissed her. At his lip's touch she blossomed for him like a flower and the incarnation was complete".
She told me it was a girl, and so I turned my head away and wept. 'All right,' I said, 'I'm glad it's a girl. And I hope she'll be a fool--that's the best thing a girl can be in this world, a beautiful little fool."

Hayatımız kısa ve çok önemli bir şeyin peşinde koştuğumuz bir yolculuk gibi. Bazen yanlış yolların peşinde koşuyoruz ama yine de koşuyoruz.
