Gatsby le magnifique (The Great Gatsby), 1925
Gatsby believed in the green light, the orgastic future that year by year recedes before us. It eluded us then, but that's not matter – tomorrow we will run faster, strech out our arms farther... And one fine morning – So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.

Gatsby le magnifique (The Great Gatsby), 1925
Variante: Gatsby croyait en la lumière verte, en l'extatique avenir qui d'année en année recule devant nous. Il nous a échappé! Qu'importe! Demain nous courrons plus vite, nos bras s'étendront plus loin... Et un beau matin...
C'est ainsi que nous avançons, barques luttant contre un courant qui nous rejette sans cesse vers le passé.
La fêlure
