The loneliest moment in someoneโs life is when they are watching their whole world fall apart, and all they can do is stare blankly.
F. Scott FitzgeraldI like people and I like them to like me, but I wear my heart where God put it, on the inside.
F. Scott FitzgeraldI was haunted always by my other life-my drab room in the Bronx, my square foot of the subway, my fixation upon the day's letter from Alabama-would it come and what would it say?-my shabby suits, my poverty, and love. While my friends were launching decently into life I had muscled my inadequate bark into midstream... I was a failure-mediocre at advertising work and unable to get started as a writer. Hating the city, I got roaring, weeping drunk on my last penny and went home.
