https://padlet.com/Mwalter1700/227c2g4gu22i "We're getting off!" Tom insisted. "I want you to meet my girl" (Fitzgerald 28). en-us 2016-09-20 16:44:44 UTC 2016-10-20 02:31:46 UTC hello@padlet.com Mwalter1700 https://padlet.com/Mwalter1700/227c2g4gu22i/wish/125159822
On page 41, Mrs. Wilson shouted "Daisy! Daisy! Daisy! I'll say whatever I want to! Daisy! Dai-" Making a short deft movement Tom Buchanan broke her nose with his open hand. Then there were bloody towels upon the bathroom floor and women's voices scolding, and high over the confusion a long broken wail of pain.

This passage shows that Tom is extremely disrespectful and has no morals because he hit a woman. Despite the fact that he is cheating on his wife, he has the nerve to punch his mistress in the face.

The first opportunity Jordan was alone with Nick, she told him that Tom was unfaithful to Daisy. "Why" Jordan said hesitantly, "Tom's got some woman in New York" (Fitzgerald 19).

Tom is cheating on his wife Daisy with another woman. Not only are Tom and Daisy married, they have a child together. Tom is disrespecting Daisy and their child.  ]]> 2016-09-28 16:43:17 UTC https://padlet.com/Mwalter1700/227c2g4gu22i/wish/127034371 Mwalter1700 https://padlet.com/Mwalter1700/227c2g4gu22i/wish/127036439 On page 137, Tom announces, "Nowadays people begin by sneering at family life and family institutions and next they'll throw everything overboard and have intermarriage between black and white."

This quote shows Tom's ignorance because he compares condoning Daisy's relationship with Gatsby to excepting interracial marriage.       ]]> 2016-09-28 16:48:49 UTC https://padlet.com/Mwalter1700/227c2g4gu22i/wish/127036439 Mwalter1700 https://padlet.com/Mwalter1700/227c2g4gu22i/wish/127040063
On page 110, Tom states," By God, I may be old fashioned in my ideas but women run around too much these days to suit me."

This quote shows how hypocritical Tom is because he doesn't like women that run around too much, meanwhile he is cheating on his wife.

In Chapter 7, " She's not leaving me!" Tom's words suddenly leaned down over Gatsby. "Certainly not for a common swindler who'd have to steal the ring he put on her finger"(Fitzgerald 140). 

This quote shows Tom is concerned about his wife and feels that he deserves to still be with her over Gatsby. Also instead of confronting Gatsby in a proper manner, he is acting childish.

"You think I'm pretty dumb, don't you?" suggested Tom. "Perhaps I am, but I have a -- almost a second sight, sometimes, that tells me what to do"(Fitzgerald 128). 

This quote displays Toms anger and how he is attacking Tom and Daisy when they are in the car. He has trouble staying calm and when he feels uncomfortable, his anger comes out.

"Tom came down with a hundred people in four private cars and hired a whole floor of the Seelbach Hotel, and the day before the wedding he gave her a string of pearls valued at three hundred and fifty thousand dollars"(Fitzgerald 80).  

This quote displays the fact that Tom basically just throws money around for not much purpose at all. He didn't need to buy a three hundred and fifty thousand dollar string of pearls, that is just over the top and unnecessary. He could be using this money for better purposes.

In Chapter 9, Nick runs into Tom and asks him what did he tell Wilson, Tom responds by saying, "I told him the truth"(Fitzgerald 187). 

This quote displays the fact that Tom wanted Gatsby dead. Tom told Wilson that Gatsby was the one that was cheating on Myrtle, When it was really Tom. ]]> 2016-10-18 17:00:52 UTC https://padlet.com/Mwalter1700/227c2g4gu22i/wish/131557148
