It was only a sunny smile, and little it cost in the giving,... - F. Scott Fitzgerald

"Show me a hero, and I'll write you a tragedy."

"Vitality shows in not only the ability to persist but the ability to start over."

"Cut out all these exclamation points. An exclamation point is like laughing at your own joke."

"After all, life hasn't much to offer except youth, and I suppose for older people, the love of youth in others."

"I'm a romantic; a sentimental person thinks things will last, a romantic person hopes against hope that they won't."
