F. Scott Fitzgerald
“Well, you never knew exactly how much space you occupied in people's lives.”
F. Scott Fitzgerald, Tender Is the Night

“The sexiest thing in the entire world is being really smart. And being thoughtful. And being generous. Everything else is crap! I promise you! It's just crap that people try to sell to you to make you feel like less. So don't buy it. Be smart, be thoughtful, and be generous.”
Ashton Kutcher
