Quote by F. Scott Fitzgerald

I'm a romantic a sentimental person thinks things will last, a romantic person hopes against hope that they won't.

I'm a romantic a sentimental person thinks things will last,

Summary

This quote reflects the mindset of a romantic and sentimental person who believes in the endurance of things and relationships. They have a strong conviction that things have the potential to last. However, they also acknowledge the inner longing and desire to defy the odds and hope against hope that things will not come to an end. This paradoxical perspective illustrates the dichotomy between the rational understanding of impermanence and the longing for eternal love or enduring connections.
