F. Scott Fitzgerald
“And as I sat there brooding on the old, unknown world, I thought of Gatsby’s wonder when he first picked out the green light at the end of Daisy’s dock. He had come a long way to this blue lawn, and his dream must have seemed so close that he could hardly fail to grasp it. He did not know that it was already behind him, somewhere back in that vast obscurity beyond the city, where the dark fields of the republic rolled on under the night.

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—to-morrow we will run faster, stretch out our arms farther. . . . And one fine morning——

So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.”
F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby

Jack Kerouac
“Live, travel, adventure, bless, and don't be sorry.”
Jack Kerouac

F. Scott Fitzgerald
“He had come a long way to this blue lawn, and his dream must have seemed so close that he could hardly fail to grasp it.”
F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby

Sarah Vowell
“In these fast and fickle times, it’s nice to know that there are some things you can always count on: the enduring brilliance of the last page of The Great Gatsby; the near-religious harmonies of the Beach Boys’ “California Girls”; and the lifelong friendship of Matt Damon and Ben Affleck.”
Sarah Vowell, The Partly Cloudy Patriot

Herb Caen
“One day if I do go to heaven...I'll look around and say, 'It ain't bad, but it ain't San Francisco.”
Herb Caen
