10 QUOTES “I’ve been drunk for about a week now, and I thought it might sober me up to sit in a library.” - F. Scott Fitzgerald “In my younger and more vulnerable years my father gave me some advice that I’ve been turning over in my mind ever since, ‘Whenever you feel like criticizing anyone,’ he told me, ‘just remember that all the people in this world haven't had the advantages that you’ve had.’” - F. Scott Fitzgerald (The Great Gatsby) My whole theory of writing I can sum up in one sentence. An author ought to write for the youth of his own generation, the critics of the next, and the schoolmasters of ever afterward. - F. Scott Fitzgerald
