Quote by F. Scott Fitzgerald, entitled For What It’s Worth: “For what it’s worth… it’s never too late, or in my case too early, to be whoever you want to be. There’s no time limit. Start whenever you want. You can change or stay the same. There are no rules in this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you’ve never felt before. I hope you meet people who have a different point of view. I hope you live a life you’re proud of, and if you’re not, I hope you have the courage to start over again.”

We went from deploying #books as "weapons in the war of ideas" to treating them like hazardous material. The history is clear: censorship never ages well.📢

A black and white image featuring a short text passage about the tragic end of author F. Scott Fitzgerald and the subsequent post-war revival of his novel, "The Great Gatsby." The text highlights that Fitzgerald died in 1940 believing his book was a failure after earning only $13 in royalties that year. It contrasts this with 1945, when American publishers shipped 155,000 pocket copies of the book to soldiers overseas to counter Nazi book burnings, ultimately driving the novel's critical revival and leading to over 25 million copies sold today.
