F. Scott Fitzgerald on entertainment

So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.

Whenever you feel like criticizing any one… just remember that all the people in this world haven’t had the advantages that you’ve had.

Genius goes around the world in its youth incessantly apologizing for having large feet. What wonder that later in life it should be inclined to raise those feet too swiftly to fools and bores.

I wish TV had a knob so you could turn up the intelligence. The one marked Brightness doesn’t work.

Gallagher1946–2022

Television is a medium of entertainment which permits millions of people to listen to the same joke at the same time, and yet remain lonesome.
