The loneliest moment in someone’s life is when they are watching their whole life fall apart, and all they can do is stare blankly.

I was joking about Zelda getting her name from Zelda Fitzgerald, but apparently it’s literally why Miyamoto named her that, and now I think this is a potential comedy goldmine when you just take F.Scott and Ernest Hemingway and transpose them on Link and Ganon

Consigli
"Nella mia prima giovinezza, quella più vulnerabile, mio padre mi diede un consiglio, su cui, da allora, non ho mai smesso di riflettere. 'Ogni volta che ti viene voglia di criticare qualcuno' mi disse 'ricorda che non tutti al mondo hanno goduto dei tuoi privilegi'" (F.Scott Fitzgerald - Il grande Gatsby)

* * * *
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 is 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. The first sort of breakage seems to happen quick—the second kind happens almost without your knowing it but is realized suddenly indeed. 
Before I go on with this short history, let me make a general observation—the test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in the mind at the same time, and still retain the ability to function. One should, for example, be able to see that things are hopeless and yet be determined to make them otherwise. This philosophy fitted on to my early adult life, when I saw the improbable, the implausible, often the "impossible," come true. Life was something you dominated if you were any good. Life yielded easily to intelligence and effort, or to what proportion could be mustered of both. 
~F. Scott Fitzgerald (Book: The Crack-Up)
