Question

**WILL ALWAYS FAN+MEDAL**

In the Great Gatsby:
-What is the quote inscribed on Fitzgerald's Grave?
-What does the quote mean to Nick?

Answer 1

"So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past."

In the story, time was often emphasized and the quote on his grave mentions how people get stuck in the past and are unable to move on. The whole thing is a symbol of Gatsby and the American Dream. There's probably more meaning to it though... adios ;)
