And I hope she'll be a fool, that's the best thing a girl can be in this world, a beautiful little fool." || Her lady like behaviour || Her obsession with Gatsby || yet dishonest and brash. || "It takes two to make an accident" || Her sophistication || Her foot in mouth disease || in an affair that she knows will never come to fruition || "Beat me! Throw me down and beat me, you dirty little coward!" || Her strong obsession || The way she treats her husband || control all that he can || " I suppose the latest thing is to sit back and let Mr Nobody from Nowhere make love to your wife. Well, if that's the idea you can count me out." || He is rich || He is violent towards his wife || who truly doesn't deserve everything that Myrtle puts him through || "God knows what you've been doing, everything you've been doing. You may fool me, but you can't fool God!" || His faith in his wife || His faith in his wife ||
