GG4
Gatsby finally understands that this dream he has had for the past five years has been destoryed by Toms anger, and that gatsbys "incourptable dream" can not be accomplished. Nick said "gatsby your worth more then whole bunch of them" meaning that the reason gatsby was in to all of this shady stuff was so that way he could get daisy, the reason he has all this money is so daisy would leave Tom, gatsby was just a guy that was willing to do anything to get this girl that he truly loved and wanted to marry while daisy just wanted to be with the richest person in town.

The Great Gatsby 3
The idea of chapter six is whether or not you can completely change yourself, now Gatsby ended up being able to change himself but that's only because he was working as a fisherman and platted out to a person named Dan Cody, he took a liking to Gatsby and they need up spending five years together, and the skills Dan Cody taught James Gat's or Jay Gatsby made him a very rich man. Gatsby went from being a dirty poor farmer to being At least a billionaire, so he did reinvent himself but I don't believe that he completely change who he was, his morals, or what he stands for, I think that you can reinvent what you do and how you do it but you can not change emotions.

Gatsby Two
Gatsby is doing everything that he can go too get dasiy to notice him, because he is in love with dasiy. He even bought this insanely huge house right across the bay from where dasiy and her husband tom, Gatsby did this because he wanted to be close to dasiy, the reason Gatsby is still in love with dasiy is because they were going to get married but Gatsby had to go off to war, dasiy was going to wait for Gatsby But when Gatsby returned she was married to Tom. Now if I was in gatsby position and had the resources that Gatsby had I would try as much he did, but there is also a fine line between trying to get your "wife" back and just being creepy.

The Great Gatsby one
Nick is describing to us that everyone is "enchanted" by the things we do not like or disapprove of, for example when nick is at this "awesome" party he doesn't even want to be at the party because he does not approve of everything that is going on, but yet he stays for some odd and unknown reason he is also at a party with a bunch of people that he barely knows, and for the most part has not made up this mind on his opinion of the people that are at the party. He also establishes that money controls a lot of the things in the world and the people act worse and more disrespectful when they have money as a posed to when they don't. which i can realte to my life because for the most part the people you talk to in todays society the ruder,disrespectful, and arrogant a person is the richier they probably are and the nicer and more respectful people ae the less money they have, now obviously this isnt true in every case. rich people are rude and poor people are nice. " i was within and without, simultaneously enchated and repelled by the inexhausted vaiety of life".
