Scott & Lois




That he was not in love with Rosemary, 
nor she with him, added to rather 
than diminished his passion for her.


This was from the novel Tender is The Night
by F. Scott Fitzgerald.





In real life, Lois Moran was the inspiration for "Rosemary."
Anyone with a fourth-grade scholarship
in the life of Mr. Fitzgerald
knows that to be true.


Also, this is true about FSF:

His heart was so square
It measured u by u


Where u = Zelda Sayre Fitzgerald


But his mind had a life of its own, as did his loins. Lois Moran was one step
above being a child actor during the days of silent film.
But the silence of her beauty spoke volumes to the man for whom
the written word was the only word that mattered.
