“So stay true to your own nature. If you like to do things in a slow and steady way, don't let others make you feel as if you have to race. If you enjoy depth, don't force yourself to seek breadth.

“The bored haughty face that she turned to the world concealed something--most affectations conceal something eventually, even though they don't in the beginning--”
― F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby
