(Audio) F. Scott Fitzgerald Honestly Examined His Own Depression

“Of course, all life is a process of breaking down, but the blows that do the dramatic side of the work, the big sudden blows that come or seem to come from outside, the ones you remember and blame things on and in moments of weakness tell your friends about, don't show their effect all at once. There's another sort of blow that comes from within that you don't feel until it's too late to do anything about it, until you realize with finality that, in some regard, you will never be as good a man again.”

 

From "The Crack Up" by F. Scott Fitzgerald, Esquire, 1936; Read by Scott Shepherd on the Esquire Classics Podcast
