The Great Gatsby

"The way he spoke! No wonder people thought he was lying."

"Life is something you dominate, Nick! If you're any good."

Daisy Buchanan: "All my life. I wish it could always be like this."
Jay Gatsby: "It will be."

"We can't lose each other. And let all this glorious love end in nothing. Come home. I'll be here waiting and hoping for every long dream of you to come true."

Jay Gatsby: "If it wasn't for the mist, we could see the green light."
Daisy Buchanan: "What green light?"
Jay Gatsby: "The one that burns all night at the end of your dock."

"I'd rather not be the polo player."

"I never realized how extraordinary a nice girl could be."

"Stocks reached record peaks, and Wall Street boomed a steady golden roar. The parties were bigger, the shows were broader, the buildings were higher, the morals were looser, and the ban on alcohol had backfired. Making the liquor cheaper. Wall Street was luring the young and ambitious, and I was one of them."
