"But when in a freak moment you will want to give the low-down, not the scandal, not the merely reported but the profound essence of what happened at a prom or after it, perhaps that honesty will come to you--and then you will understand how it is possible to make even a forlorn Laplander feel the importance of a trip to Cartier's!"

Hi Summer! It's great that you are interested in reading Scott Fitzgerald's books.And one of my all time favorite are Tender is the Night and Great Gatsby. Two amazing books. Hope this helped :)

Gatsby believed in the green light, the orgastic future that year by year recedes before us. It eluded us then, but that’s no matter—tomorrow we will run faster, stretch out our arms farther. . . . And then one fine morning—

This is the last paragraph of the book "The Great Gatsby"
