Answer: Gatsby still loves Daisy, and is deeply convinced that the two of them can live happily ever after. He is trying to recapture his life at the time the two of them were together.
Explanation:
Jay Gatsby, the protagonist of the novel <em>the Great Gatsby, </em>is motivated by his emotions. He still loves Daisy, his ex-girlfriend. This is why he organizes all of those parties, stares at the green light at the end of Daisy's dock, and asks Nick to organize their meeting. He is trying to recapture himself in the past, and his relationship with Daisy. To Gatsby, there are no obstacles that cannot be removed. Daisy, on the other hand, is a married woman now, and has a child - her life has completely changed since the two of them parted. Gatsby is, for her, just a beautiful memory. Gatsby, however, sincerely believes that he can recapture the past, which is seen in his conversation with Nick, his neighbor and the narrator of the story:
Nick tells Gatsby,<em> "You can't repeat the past," </em>while Gatsby answers, <em>"Why of course you can." </em>
Gatsby does not change his opinion, until the end of his life. As Nick describes it, Gatsby has <em>"an extraordinary gift for hope."</em>
The quote is incomplete. It should read: "For language is arbitrarily produced by the imagination, and has relation to thoughts alone; but all other materials, instruments and conditions of art have relations among each other which limit and interpose between conception and expression. The former is as a mirror which reflects, the later as a cloud which enfeebles the light of which both are mediums of communication. Hence the fame of sculptors, painters and musicians...has never equaled that of poets..."
A Defence of Poetry- Percy Shelley
In my view the correct answer should be B: “and has relation to thoughts alone”.
The reason being that as Shelley explains later, he considers that language has a direct, unique and exclusive relation with thoughts. Logically, thoughts are a direct product of the imagination, whether they are spontaneous or a result of external stimuli, and if according to his logic language is intimately and exclusively related to them it follows that language comes from the imagination. For Shelley as a poet, because language comes directly from imagination without the mediation or interference of any kind, poetry is the purest form of art.
