"This is a valley of ashes a fantastic farm where ashes grow like wheat into ridges and hills and grotesque gardens; where ashes take the forms of houses and chimneys and rising smoke and, finally, with a transcendent effort, of men who move dimly and already crumbling through the powdery air."  This quote describes the desolate and industrial landscape of the "valley of ashes," symbolizing the cruel realities that lie beneath the facade of the American Dream. The idea of ashes growing into false appearances reflects the decay and emptiness behind the pursuit of wealth.

2. "The interior was unprosperous and bare; the only car visible was the dust-covered wreck of a Ford which crouched in a dim corner." This quote describes Tom Buchanan's affair with Myrtle Wilson in her apartment.

3. "His wife was shrill, languid, handsome, and horrible. She told me with pride that her husband had photographed her a hundred and twenty-seven times since they had been married. Her husband was obliging enough to include in the picture her full-bodied mother." This quote introduces Myrtle Wilson and her relationship with her husband George. Myrtle's desire to escape her working-class life and achieve a higher social status through her affair with Tom is an example of how characters in the novel pursue their own versions of the American Dream, often with tragic consequences.
