The Great Gatsby Daisy Quotes

DAISY: Daisy is not pure, she is manipulative and cheated on her husband while making Gatsby believe she loved him. Tom continued to limit Daisy throughout the book and Gatsby kept up his fantasy future with her. Daisy, as seen through her affair, was satisfied with both of the men she was receiving attention from. As a stage in a theater does, she put on a show with her swoony tone and her innocent remarks. She took center stage as both the curtain (Gatsby) and the spotlight (Tom) tried to keep her close. She was the reason the book took place, the stimulator in Gatsby’s hope for a better future. The stage is where the whole play presents itself and where people can believe in their own imagination. The same is true for Daisy because Gatsby
used her as a way to achieve his allusion of happiness. The reoccurrence of white hints that Daisy's innocence is gone which the author is able to portray through the contradictory color symbolism. White also symbolizes Daisy’s feminism which is quite often shut down by Tom.
