Quote #2

After explaining his relationship with his father, the main character Nick, starts to explain more about himself. He makes a point to tell the readers that even though he makes himself sound great, he is not perfect. He explains this by saying " Conduct may be founded on the hard rock or the wet marshes, but after a certain point I don't care what it's founded on. " I found this quote clever and funny. Along with the last, this quote explains a lot about Nick and his realistic point of view.
