F. Scott Fitzgerald
  • Though the Jazz Age continued it became less and less an affair of youth. The sequel was like a children's party taken over by the elders.

  • Great art is the contempt of a great man for small art.

  • The compensation of a very early success is a conviction that life is a romantic matter. In the best sense one stays young.

  • Advertising is a racket, like the movies and the brokerage business. You cannot be honest without admitting that its constructive contribution to humanity is exactly minus zero.

  • Genius is the ability to put into effect what is on your mind.
