Literature is almost an unspoken language. There are so many ways to interpret and argue with it, that it compels writers to test past arguments, inquire on scholarly findings and revamp literature in his or her own way. It can benefit us professionally because it forces us to dig into the flesh of text to figure out the message that the author tried to relay to us. Personally it can help us to strengthen our own vocabulary or writings.
Gatsby did not leave West Egg even though Nick tells him to do so because he was waiting for Daisy to give him a call and a go-signal that both of them will run away and live a different and brand new life together. Gatsby was a hopeless romantic that was just waiting and has always been waiting and wanting for the love of his life, which was none other than, Daisy.
For the answer to the question above, t<span>he quote is that we are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny." I think he means that our lives are unavoidably connected with each other -- like a network of threads that can't really be untied/unknotted, and that we share a common destiny, whatever it may be. As much as some people may want to believe and live their lives as if they are completely alone and independent of other people -- or as part of one group that can remain isolated from other groups -- he is pointing out that our fates are necessarily intertwined to some extent. He seems to be using a fabric metaphor-- a network of threads becomes a single garment which represents our collective destiny as a society. </span>
<span>You can kind of see an example of this in the economic situation in the world today. It is hard to find a place in the world today where individuals are not experiencing some effect of this economy, which is tied to gas prices, which is tied to food and commodity prices, which is tied to people paying their bills, which is tied to foreclosures, which is tied to big banks asset portfolio, which is tied to credit availability, which is tied to investor confidence, etc.... Each of us is affected somewhere along the line.</span>
