Little montenegro! he lifted up the words and nodded at them-with his smile. the smile comprehended montenegro’s troubled history and sympathized with the brave struggles of the montenegrin people. it appreciated fully the chain of national circumstances, which had elicited this tribute from montenegro’s warm little heart. my incredulity was submerged in fascination now; it was like skimming hastily through a dozen magazines.

Little Montenegro! He Lifted Up The Words

More From F. Scott Fitzgerald

So mo began filling the silence with words. he lured them out of the pages as if they had only been waiting for his voice, words long and short, words sharp and soft, cooing, purring words. they danced through the room, painting stained glass pictures, tickling the skin. even when meggie nodded off she could still hear them, although mo had closed the book long ago. words that explained the world to her, its dark side and its light side, words that built a wall to keep out bad dreams. and not a single bad dream came over that wall for the rest of the night.
Dream Wall Book
There are no brave men and cowardly men in the world, my son. there are only brave men. to be born, to live, to die—that takes courage enough in itself, and more than enough. we are all brave men and we are all afraid, and what the world calls a brave man, he too is brave and afraid like the all rest of us. only he is brave for five minutes longer.

When a trout rising to a fly gets hoooked on a line and finds himself unable to swim about freeely, he begins with a fight which results in struggles and splashes and sometimes an escape. often, of course, the situation is too tough for him. in the same way the human being struggles with his environment and with the hooks that catch him. sometimes he masters his difficulties; sometimes they are too much for him. his struggles are all that the world sees and it naturally misunderstands them. it is hard for a free fish to understand what is happening to a hooked one.

The proposed constitution, therefore, even when tested by the rules laid down by its antagonists, is, in strictness, neither a national nor a federal constitution; but a composition of both. in its foundation it is federal, not national; in the sources from which the ordinary powers of the government are drawn, it is partly federal, and partly national; in the operation of these powers, it is national, not federal; in the extent of them again, it is federal, not national; and finally, in the authoritative mode of introducing amendments, it is neither wholly federal, nor wholly national.

Criticism has plucked the imaginary flowers on the chain not in order that man shall continue to bear that chain without fantasy or consolation, but so that he shall throw off the chain and pluck the living flower. the criticism of religion disillusions man, so that he will think, act, and fashion his reality like a man who has discarded his illusions and regained his senses, so that he will move around himself as his own true sun. religion is only the illusory sun which revolves around man as long as he does not revolve around himself.
