El Gran Gatsby
Capítulo 1, Página 14
“Tom’s
getting
very
profound,”
said
Daisy,
with
an
expression
of
unthoughtful
sadness.
“He
reads
deep
books
with
long
words
in
them.
What
was
that
word
we—”
“Well,
these
books
are
all
scientific,”
insisted
Tom,
glancing
at
her
impatiently.
“This
fellow
has
worked
out
the
whole
thing.
It’s
up
to
us,
who
are
the
dominant
race,
to
watch
out
or
these
other
races
will
have
control
of
things.”
“We’ve
got
to
beat
them
down,”
whispered
Daisy,
winking
ferociously
toward
the
fervent
sun.
“You
ought
to
live
in
California—”
began
Miss
Baker,
but
Tom
interrupted
her
by
shifting
heavily
in
his
chair.
“This
idea
is
that
we’re
Nordics.
I
am,
and
you
are,
and
you
are,
and—”
After
an
infinitesimal
hesitation
he
included
Daisy
with
a
slight
nod,
and
she
winked
at
me
again.
“—And
we’ve
produced
all
the
things
that
go
to
make
civilization—oh,
science
and
art,
and
all
that.
Do
you
see?”
There
was
something
pathetic
in
his
concentration,
as
if
his
complacency,
more
acute
than
of
old,
was
not
enough
to
him
any
more.
When,
almost
immediately,
the
telephone
rang
inside
and
the
butler
left
the
porch
Daisy
seized
upon
the
momentary
interruption
and
leaned
towards
me.
