The quotable Fitzgerald



[She] had been designed for change, for flight, with money as fins and wings. F. Scott Fitzgerald, Tender Is The Night



Either you think—or else others have to think for you and take power from you, pervert and discipline your natural tastes, civilize and sterilize you. F. Scott Fitzerald, Tender Is The Night



 He had long been outside of the world of simple desires and their fulfillments, and he was inept and uncertain. For all he knew there might be some code among the wanderers of obscure spas by which they found each other quickly. F. Scott Fitzgerald, Tender Is The Night


 I don’t ask you to love me always like this, but I ask you to remember. Somewhere inside me there’ll always be the person I am tonight. F. Scott Fitzgerald, Tender Is The Night
  


 Actually that’s my secret — I can’t even talk about you to anybody because I don’t want any more people to know how wonderful you are. F. Scott Fitzgerald, Tender Is The Night

 If personality is an unbroken series of successful gestures, then there was something gorgeous about him, some heightened sensitivity to the promises of life, as if he were related to one of those intricate machines that register earthquakes ten thousand miles away. F. Scott Fitzerald, The Great Gatsby
