Zelda Fitzgerald quotes about
courage world feels
And only weaklings...who lack courage and the power to feel they're right when the whole world says they're wrong, ever lose.
mother fun heart
The Flapper awoke from her lethargy of sub-deb-ism, bobbed her hair, put on her choicest pair of earrings and a great deal of audacity and rouge and went into the battle. She flirted because it was fun to flirt and wore a one-piece bathing suit because she had a good figure she was conscious that the things she did were the things she had always wanted to do. Mothers disapproved of their sons taking the Flapper to dances, to teas, to swim and most of all to heart.
thinking ideas people
Other people's ideas of us are dependent largely on what they've hoped for.
heart thinking giving
I'm just not the same. Half of me is out there looking for you and the other half is wishing i didn't have to." I don't want to live - I want to love first, And live incidentally. Don't-don't ever think of the things you can't give me-You've trusted me with the dearest heart of all-and it's so damn much more than anybody else in all the world has ever had.
reading people information
People are like almanacs, Bonnie - you never can find the information you're looking for, but the casual reading is well worth the trouble.
funny music dream
We grew up founding our dreams on the infinite promise of American advertising. I still believe that one can learn to play the piano by mail and that mud will give you a perfect complexion.
real elegance
Death is the only real elegance.
summer self goal
It seemed to Alabama that, reaching her goal, she would drive the devils that had driven her - that, in proving herself, she would achieve that peace which she imagined went only in surety of one’s self - that she would be able, through the medium of the dance, to command her emotions, to summon love or pity or happiness at will, having provided a channel through which they might flow. She drove herself mercilessly, and the summer dragged on.
people passionate danger
isn't it funny how danger makes people passionate?
time maturity years
By the time a person has achieved years adequate for choosing a direction, the die is cast and the moment has long since passed which determined the future.
years mind body
Why do we spend years using up our bodies to nurture our minds with experience and find our minds turning then to our exhausted bodies for solace?
summer dream moon
I play the radio and moon about...and dream of Utopias where its always July the 24th 1935, in the middle of summer forever.
father character conflict
Father said conflict develops the character
beautiful song philosophy
I wish I could write a beautiful book to break those hearts that are soon to cease to exist: a book of faith and small neat worlds and of people who live by the philosophies of popular songs.
