***it would be the Pope.***

Hope you mean Bergolio and not our dear Holy Father Benedict XVI!

I knew that image Flynn has up was familiar. Even though not exact. Gen Flynn is brilliant.

The Great Gatsby explores themes of decadence, idealism, resistance to change, social upheaval and excess, creating a portrait of the Roaring Twenties that has been described as a cautionary tale regarding the American Dream.

The moral of The Great Gatsby is that the American Dream is ultimately unattainable. Jay Gatsby had attained great wealth and status as a socialite; however, Gatsby’s dream was to have a future with his one true love, Daisy. (Boomerang)?

The Great Gatsby” is no Great American Fable of accomplished dreams; it is a cautionary tragedy. Its characters discard their morals to attain pleasure or to quench their ambitions, and, by the novel’s end, they all wind up hollow and disaffected.
