And it occurred to me that there was no difference between men, in intelligence or race, so profound as the difference between the sick and the well.
- F Scott Fitzgerald

His parents were shiftless and unsuccessful farm people - his imagination had never really accepted them as his parents at all. The truth was that Jay Gatsby of West Egg, Long Island, sprang from his Platonic conception of himself. He was a son of God...and he must be about His Father's business, the service of a vast, vulgar, and meretricious beauty. So he invented...Jay Gatsby...and to this conception he was faithful to the end.
- F Scott Fitzgerald
