“Life is like a game of cards. The hand you are dealt is determinism; the way you play it is free will.” This quote by Jawaharlal Nehru shows that even with limits, there is still free will. Free will is defined as “freedom of humans to make choices that are not determined by prior causes or by divine intervention” (Merriam-Webster) In both Brave New World and Gattaca there are limits. In some ways, both governments do give their people the freedom to make their own decisions. In what these two books share in common, they also differentiate a lot. The movie Gattaca presents more of a free will environment than Brave New World.

The connection between these two quotes is that they both involve Isabella acting selfish and deceitful toward Catherine, and they show how Catherine responds to the realities surrounding her. When Catherine makes plans with Miss Tilney Isabella tries to selfishly convince Catherine to cancel her plans due to her controlling and jealous nature, which to Catherine, “[appears] to her ungenerous and selfish, regardless of everything but her own gratification (67).” This quote is important because this is the first time Catherine really acknowledges the downfalls and incredibly selfish nature of her friend, and it also shows that Catherine is starting to see her world for what it is instead of skewing reality to fit the traits of one of the novels she has read. Although, Catherine starts to develop this skill while in Bath, she still has a hard time reading people and has the tendency to assume incorrectly about her peers.

C.S. Lewis once said, “Free will, though it makes evil possible, is also the only thing that makes possible any love or goodness or joy worth having.” This is an essential issue that both Gattaca and Brave New World explore. Is free will worth it if it creates joy, goodness and love, even if it causes evil and unhappiness? Or is it better to eradicate it favor of an illusioned happiness? Gattaca limits, but does not abolish free will, which leads to emotions and tension in society, while Brave New World eradicates free will in order to create a stable society.

The quote above represents Jay Gatsby’s past before becoming who he is at that point of the story. The first sentence of the quote reveals information about Gatsby’s portrayal of himself before he becomes who he is. The phrase, “sprang from his Platonic conception of himself”, tells the readers that Gatsby does not have a love life before (Fitzgerald 104). It implies that Gatsby undergoes a transformation by breaking free from his previous self for the sake of love, possibly his love for Daisy.

The Great Gatsby By Fitzgerald is a novel with an occurring theme, this theme is that the past must stay in the past, and that no matter how badly one should like to relive it, no good outcome in presented when chasing something you can never catch; the past. Fitzgerald uses Gatsby to establish this theme, from the time they first meet to the time Gatsby told Nick his intentions of reuniting with Daisy.

Fitzgerald characterizes Daisy as a stereotypical stay-at-home mother who is soft and submissive in her relationship with her wealthy husband. However, on further examination, Daisy also rebels in her own way, primarily within her marriage to Tom. From the start, it is apparent how Daisy’s marriage to Tom is not based on love, as Fitzgerald describes their relationship as “impersonal eyes in the absence of all desire,” (Fitzgerald 10) which shows how their relationship is comforting and convenient but not loving. Tom is described as a very powerful man with “a cruel body” (Fitzgerald 7) with “two shining arrogant eyes (that) had established dominance over his face,” (Fitzgerald 6). This description of Tom is of a self-absorbed man who overpowers
