Gatsby Effect 

When a person's friends or acquaintances agree to uphold untrue stories about the friend for the sake of helping that friend impress others, especially a romantic interest.

"Rick told me that Marty graduated from Yale and used to work for Disney!"

"Aw, Marty hasn't done any of that. That's just Ricky using the Gatsby Effect to help him date you."

I got off late from work and managed to hop on the last Gatsby Express.

The Great Gatsby 

One of the greatest pieces of literature of all time. A timeless classic that tells the story of a man, James Gatz, who has an undying dream, a desire for a love that he will never have. Written by F. Scott Fitzgerald, this book is said to be a parallel of his life.

"Gatsby believed in the green light. The orgastic future that year by year recedes before us. It eluded us then, but it's no matter. For tomorrow we will run faster, reach our arms out farther. Then on one fine day, so we beat on, boats against the current, we are borne back into the past"- A closing line in the masterpiece novel, The Great Gatsby.
