The Great Gatsby Quote
Jordan Baker: When I first met you, Daisy came up to my room later and woke me. She wanted to know what Gatsby. When I described him, she said in the strangest voice it must be a man she knew. Then it all came back to me. They knew each other in Louisville five years ago. We ran with different crowds then but I remember seeing them together once in her car. And I remember he looked at her in that way that all young girls want to be looked at sometime.
Nick Carraway: A strange coincidence.
Jordan Baker: It wasn't a coincidence at all. I think he half expected her to wander into one of his parties some night. She never did.
Nick Carraway: What do you mean?
Jordan Baker: Gatsby bought that house so that Daisy would be just across the bay. He wants to know if you'll invite her over to your house some afternoon and let him come over.
Nick Carraway: Why didn't he ask you to arrange a meeting?
Jordan Baker: He wants her to see his house, and your house is right next door.
