Quote of the Picosecond:

"Gatsby believed in the green light, the orgiastic future that year by year recedes before us... it eluded us then, but that is no matter-- tomorrow we will run faster, stretch out our arms further... And one fine morning-- So we beat on, boats against the current, born back ceaselessly into the past."

-F. Scott Fitzgerald,
Author,
in The Great Gatsby
