The Great Gatsby quote questions what does he mean?

The Great Gatsby quote questions what does he mean?
1) This is simply a description of a valley where many ash trees grow; if they grow "like wheat," it implies an area that is dense with such trees, the way wheat is dense in a field.





2) "He" believes something that isn't true; the speaker is saying that he's incredibly stupid.





3) This quote is helping to set a mood, describing the period of time where lights are beginning to be visible in buildings.





4) This quote sets a tone as well; it tells you what Gatsby's home is like - that there is always a party, and that people simply drop by, as though it were an attraction rather than a private home.





5) This quote tells you about Gatsby himself; it says that he's a person who doesn't pry - who understands you "just as far as you want to be understood" and no further; he reflects the person he's with to a degree.





6) It should be "It takes two to make an accident," meaning accidents (and other problems) require two participants, or they wouldn't happen at all.
