A Great Gatsby Post.

I WILL NEVER GET OVER THIS JOKE "What did Gatsby say when Myrtle was run over? OOPSIE DAISY" HAHAHHAHAHAHA

. The whole plot basically revolves how Gatsby's love for Daisy had corrupted his life. One quote in particular had always got me thinking :

"I'm glad it's a girl. And I hope she'll be a fool - that's the best thing a girl can be in this world, a beautiful little fool."

There isnt a single bit of that quote that i would disagree to. It's definitely great being a fool. Intelligence only causes you to think, which in this society, often leads to overthinking resulting in creating problems that werent there originally. A fool wouldn't have much to worry about in this world, a fool wouldnt have to experience the complex nature of emotions and pain caused by strained relationships. A fool wouldnt have to think about all the possibilities of why someone had left them, a fool wouldnt have to relate everything to her painful memories, a fool wouldnt be afraid to fall in love despite the many times she had been scarred. A beautiful fool would live everyday as it is, nothing more nothing less, just a simple life.
