8. "If it weren't for the fog, we would have seen your house across the bay," Gatsby said. "There is always a green light at the end of your dock, which never goes out all night." Daisy suddenly reached out and took his arm, but he seemed to be immersed in what he had just said. Maybe it suddenly occurred to him that the great significance of that lamp has now disappeared forever. Compared with the distance between him and Daisy, the lamp once seemed to be very close to her, almost touching her. Like a star so close to the moon. Now it's the green light on the dock.

It faces-or seems to face-the whole eternal world in an instant, and then focuses on you, showing irresistible preference for you.

We have strengths and weaknesses, and where we believe, they are cynical. This situation is difficult to understand, because people are not born rich.

The city doesn't have endless roads and streets as he imagined, but it obviously has boundaries ... Looking down from this tallest building, he witnessed for the first time that the boundaries of the city disappeared into villages in all directions and merged into a blue-green color. Only the latter is really endless. This terrible epiphany made people further understand that new york is only a city after all, not the whole universe, so the glittering conceptual system he carefully constructed in his imagination came crashing to the ground. collide
27. All good writing is swimming underwater. You must hold your breath. collide
28. I decided to say hello to him. Miss Baker mentioned him at dinner, which can be regarded as an introduction. But I didn't call him. He didn't want anyone to disturb his silence, because he suddenly made an action-stretching out his arms to the dark sea in a strange way. I swear he is shaking, even though I am far away from him. I can't help looking at the sea, but there is nothing but lonely green light. The light is weak and far away, maybe it is the end of a dock. When I went back to see Gatsby, he had already left, leaving me alone on this uneasy night. The Great Gatsby
I spend every Saturday night in new york, because I still remember Gatsby's brightly lit and dazzling banquet. I can still hear the faint sound of happiness and laughter coming from his garden, and cars driving in his driveway. One night I did hear a car there and saw the headlights shining on the doorstep, but I didn't investigate. Probably the last guest, who just came back from the ends of the earth, didn't know the party was over. The Great Gatsby

Obviously, he has experienced two mental states and is now entering the third. At first he was embarrassed, then he was ecstatic, and now he can't control himself because she is too surprised to appear in front of him. He has been thinking about this all these years, dreaming, and he is simply gritting his teeth and looking forward to it. His feelings are incredible. The Great Gatsby

35. People often write about scars on wounds, and use pathological phenomena of the skin to describe a psychological state. However, there is no such thing in one's life. It's just that a wound sometimes shrinks to the size of a needle eye, but it's still a wound without scar. The trace of torture is closer to losing a finger or an eye. Throughout the year, we don't feel wrong because we are missing a finger or blind an eye, but even if we feel wrong, there is no way to remedy it. Tender Is The Night

The second is to save yourself and think about your future livelihood. She bought things for a completely different purpose.

38. "Don't care about anything or anyone," she said, "except myself, my extension and Anthony. All life follows this law, if not, at least I think so myself. No one will do anything for me unless they are satisfied with it, so I seldom do anything for them.
39. "No, that's not good," he said to the pile of fur that can't see the face. "Politeness is to admit that everyone is effeminate and must be handled with gloves. But respect for people is another matter. You can't call a person a coward or a liar. But if you are careful all your life for fear of breaking people's hearts and making them comfortable with nice words, then you can't tell what they have to respect. " Tender Is The Night
