After he left she would go in and light the gas and close the shatters, and he would go down the path and on to the village.

Additional quotes by F. Scott Fitzgerald

There was no God in his heart, he knew; his ideas were still in riot; there was ever the pain of memory; the regret for his lost youth — yet the waters of disillusion had left a deposit on his soul, responsibility and a love of life, the faint stirring of old ambitions and unrealized dreams.
