F. Scott Fitzgerald: His Words

“Show me a hero and I will write you a tragedy.”
“You don't write because you want to say something, you write because you have something to say.”
“Action is character.”
“Forgotten is forgiven.”
“There are no second acts in American lives.”
“Optimism is the content of small men in high places.”
“First you take a drink, then the drink takes a drink, then the drink takes you.”
“The two basic stories of all times are Cinderella and Jack the Giant Killer — the charm of women and the courage of men.”
“A big man has no time really to do anything but just sit and be big.”
“A great social success is a pretty girl who plays her cards as carefully as if she were plain.”
“A lot of young girls together is a romantic secret thing like the first sight of wild ducks at dawn.”
“A sense of the fundamental decencies is parceled out unequally at birth.”
“Advertising is a racket, like the movies and the brokerage business. You cannot be honest without admitting that its constructive contribution to humanity is exactly minus zero.”
“After all, life hasn't much to offer except youth, and I suppose for older people, the love of youth in others.”
