One form of symbolism that I found very interesting was Scott's use of the billboard ad containing the huge eyes of one Dr. But what she is really expressing is her envy and jealousy of Gatsby's new riches and all of his elaborate material possessions. Daisy begins to cry, saying that these shirts are so beautiful. For example, when she is taken into Gatsby's home for a tour, she is shown Gatsby's beautiful imported shirts. Something that I found quite apparent was her obviously shallow, money grubbing motives. She is completely devoid of any knowledge of the outside world, always lost in pointless thought. The use of white, in reference to Daisy's wardrobe, symbolizes her laziness and uselessness within the story. And as he was building his wealth, Gatsby would look over the lake toward that green light with envy and await the day he would be good enough for Daisy. Gatsby envied Tom because he knew that Daisy needed a wealthy man to take care of her. wanted to express to his readers the symbolism behind the color. The same dock light that Gatsby spent so many nights gazing at. Green is not only the color of money and the color most notably associated with greed, but it is also the color of the light on Daisy's dock. This color shows the envy, greed, and jealousy that make up this story. The ultimate factor for almost every action within the story is money, the color green. Scott uses a color scheme to show many emotions of characters in this story. I thing the author was also trying to show us that sometimes one can hold on to a dream for so long, and try so hard to achieve it that it can leave you in misery instead of happiness. From a distance, Gatsby sees a green light on Daisys dock. This symbolism is seen in the green light on Daisys dock, the billboard on the side of the highway, the cars, the library in Gatsbys house, and Daisys appearance. This causes lack of acceptance for their responsibilities. Fitzgerald uses many symbolic devices to convey the thoughts and motifs of the 1920s. They begin to become oblivious of the outside world and think of themselves as a higher being. It compels people to show a persona of arrogance and creates a haze of fog in the air of the world around them. Money causes people to become envious, greedy, and jealous. Scott Fitzgerald tried to accent the point that money does not breed happiness.
